Helen, I have, like previous letters to you have revealed, loved both your books and am already looking forward to your third, whenever that might be! But mainly I am writing to you because of a remark you made in an earlier interview....."I have an ever present longing for England." Yes?? I am an ex-pat of many years and I couldn't have said it better myself! Thank you! Happy Independence Day America!

Happy 4th to you too, Penny. My second as a citizen. Having dual passports allows me the luxury of being thoroughly a New Yorker and Brooklynite while remaining so very connected to the Rye and England of my youth and family. We are both rich in countries Penny!

Helen Simonson:
hi. I have always wanted to be an author and I would like to ask you a few questions if you'd answer them. I was wondering if you have any responsibilities as an author? if you do what are they? also what kind of education did you have to get to become an author. and what if any contributions do you as an author make to society? thanks.
