The most challenging book that we've written is Black Hands, White Sails because we knew nothing about the subject. We saw black whalers of the 19th century featured on a history channel special. It was hard work, but it was also a lot of fun because we met so many interesting people. All of our books are challenging and fun. That's what makes writing such an exciting profession.
Every new book is a new and wonderful experience.
And just as no two books are the same, our experiences writing them are different as well. Thanks so much for allowing us to spend this time answering your questions. Read our Privacy Policy Statement .
