Tracy Crump asked Linda Shenton Matchett:

You write about different time periods. How do you research each one?

Linda Shenton Matchett Hi Tracy! I love using primary sources for my research no matter what era. The further back in time I go, the more difficult it is to find diaries and memoirs, but I've found a few. I also look at newspapers, catalogs, and books written during the time period. For my WWII fiction, I often watch YouTube interviews conducted by universities and museums. I also watch documentaries.
