Jeff Foltz:
Hi Mr. Foltz! So far you've created stories around World War II, and surrounding the age of the Vikings. I'm very anxious to know what's next! Both periods were times of significant war/conflict, and were turning points for that particular society. Do you plan to continue with these themes, or do you think your writing will take a different turn? I very much look forward to reading your next book! Take care :)

Hi Sarah,
Thanks for your interest. Historical fiction is what I like to write and I don't see a departure from that soon. I don't have a favorite period or preferred type of event. I look for something that is a good story, perhaps because of a universal theme (i.e.,the courage of motherhood in Birkebeiner) or an incident where the corners of history don't quite square (the rush to use the Atomic bomb and the reasons given for doing so in Two Men Ten Suns). Right now I'm working on two projects, a sequel to Birkebeiner and another World War Two story based on what I believe was the second worst atrocity of that war. I haven't decided which to go full speed on, so it may be a while before I finish. Thanks again for your question.
