Jorid Angell asked Amanda Eyre Ward:

Why did you want to write this book, to tell this story?

Amanda Eyre Ward I believe that we can work through our childhood problems to find joy...and I wanted to tell the story of a family who were able to do just this.

Dear Amanda, Your books always have a consistent tone from page one to the end. Do you have the whole book in your head before you begin to write? If you will indulge me another question. Why are you no well known in the UK? In my reading circles I seem to be your only advocate. Michael

Danica Alexander asked Amanda Eyre Ward:

Where did Sleep Toward Heaven's story come from? Any basis in fact? Any on site research?? Loved that book, by the way.

Katie Heflin asked Amanda Eyre Ward:

Did you meet or interview with people who had illegally crossed over to America to prepare for this book? This book is now one of my all-time favorites and I am in awe of it. Hugs from DFW <3.
