Judith Wagley asked Paula McLain:

I'm reading Circling the Sun for the 2nd time in preparation to lead a discussion in a book club. I have also read West with the Night, Markham's biography and I'm trying to match up periods of time in the 2 books. I've loved both your books and am glad to know you research your characters thoroughly. I hope I do the book justice. May I ask some questions after the meeting?

Paula McLain Hello, Judith, and of course! Good luck and I hope it's a wonderful discussion.

Although you as an American author may have undue respect for such 'things' as the new york times, I ask you how do you honestly value success? As an aspiring writer I am intrigued. Raymond Crane XXX
