This month, you could win a copy of In Flanders Fields, signed by the author Norman Jorgensen!
Your task is simple- think of a question you’d like Norman or myself to answer, then add your question to the comments section of this post before August 24th.
We’ll randomly select one of the questions, and whoever submitted it will win this month’s prize!
We’ll also select our favourite questions and record a video interview, which we’ll upload at the end of August.
The fine print: this competition runs from 6 August to 24 August. Winners will be drawn on 24 August at 2 pm WST and announced on the blog on August 31. To be eligible, blog readers must submit a question for Norman and/or James in the comment field of this post. Employees of Fremantle Press or their families are ineligible to win.

Do you have plans to annimate the story? I venture boh of you’d get funding because of the subject and James, surely with your art, the groundwork has been done. I’m told basic annimation costs between $500 and $1000 a minute.
If you want to have a go at doing a screenplay Norm – I’ll help you.
(I already have a signed copy of the book…)
Best hugs,
Frances (Sue to you)
great question Frances. Norm and I will answer as many questions as we can in our video interview at the end of the month…
Hi James,
My question relates to the research for your subject matter. 🙂
Having lived in Norway for 4 years and being subject to the ins-and-outs of modern-day vikings, I’m curious as to whether the “last” viking:
1.) Was ever able to enjoy more that one brand of beer?
2.) Used the word “please” in everyday conversation?
3.) Ate anything other than fish and potatoes?
4.) Partook in using “snus”?
5.) Had his own cabin (hytte) that he visited on every opportunity?
6.) Went on expeditions to Sweden to purchase cheap meat and liquor?
Thanks,
Jeremy.
