Hello Karen,

Dear Renate,

Welcome to the United States of America!  I hope you are enjoying your stay here.  I’m not sure why a German publisher hasn’t picked up our story.  They buy the American books they believe they can sell.  It’s an imperfect system. Dr. Baer and I thought they would be interested, too!  Regarding who to contact, I believe it would be a German publishing company, or maybe a magazine or television show.  I believe that if there was an interest shown, a German publisher would consider publishing a German version of Switching Time.  We have been very fortunate to be published in the countries you list above.  Recently, just last month, Taiwan published our story.  It’s never too late; it can still happen.  Dr. Baer and I would be thrilled.

Thank you for your interest.  I have copies of our foreign book covers on my Facebook page.  I believe you can browse the Internet to find many articles and interviews about our book from different countries around the world. Maybe there are articles published that we are unaware of?

Karen
