No, I haven't (yet) written any other books. The Lost Daughter took so long to write. I go over and over what I write so it takes me a very long time. At first I thought I was writing a short story, but then it kept on going.

No, it isn't available in paperback and the second printing is almost all sold out. You can ask for it at Feldheim book stores in the mercaz of Israel.

The nice thing about the book was that it was different. I could tell you used your imagination. I think I read a story of yours in the book ,"Fiction" as well.

yes, that was my story in "Fiction." I see you really keep up with what's happening with frum fiction.
I also had a couple of stories in the early issues of Binah and in Horizons.

Wow! The author of "The lost daughter" on imamother.
So nice to be able to compliment an author for a great book.
I am not finished it yet and I am reading the last pages slowly, enjoying every minute of it.
Is it at all based on any true facts?

No, it really isn't based on true events; it was all imagined, mainly by asking "what if" questions. However the partisan putting his family into hiding was based on a widower that used to eat dinner at our house when we lived in Chicago. When he mentioned that detail of his past, I felt incredibly pulled into his story.
