I love your books!

Comment:

I just started reading the Alice series, and it is so good! My favorite book series of yours is The Boys Start the War. It was so fun to read! I like how I can relate to the Alice books (because I am 11 and around the same age as Alice). Where do you get your ideas?

I’m so glad you enjoy my books.  The Boys Start the War series is based in the West Virginia town where my husband grew up, the real name is Buckhannon.  The Alice series was inspired by things that happened to my friends, to me, things I read about in the paper, but most of all, just putting myself in Alice’s place and letting imagination do the rest.
