Hi Jamie,
When I begin a book, I sit myself down for 3 hours a day even if I don't think I have that much to write. It's amazing how the ideas will flow when you force yourself to sit there. Once I'm about 1/3 into the first draft, I write for longer stretches.

was there a reason you didn't make it obvious what order "Making Bombs For Hitler", ""The War Below", "Stolen Child", Etc. went? I'm having a difficult time figuring out which ones to read first. I decided on " Making Bombs for Hitler", But now seeing that " Stolen Child' should be read first. Is there a certain order you recommend? Thanks! I really am Enjoying "Making Bombs for Hitler!"

I recently used Making Bombs For Hitler for a jr book club activity with some bright/gifted 5th graders. We had one student who disliked the book because he felt it was extremely biased against the German people in general. The rest of us didn't see that as your intent. We thought you were merely presenting the POV of prisoners shaped by their personal experiences. How would you address this one student's view? Thanks
