The Dalai Lama in New Orleans

Fantastic trip to Poland and Germany to find the original mass grave of a lost soldier.

Now to write my new YA nonfiction account of a soldier on the Russian Front on WWII.

  2012 had me deep in WWII archives and then sent me to Poland in July to find out what happened to a German soldier who disappeared on the Russian Front in January 1945.

I’m back in Poland now, still looking for traces of that soldier. The wintry weather in Warsaw does not look good for our hunt for a mass grave in rural Poland, but we’ll be off tomorrow anyway.

Hope to find Polish WWII survivors who know what happened in the forests of Grabowa.

Trying to solve the mystery of a missing WWII soldier. Hunting through letters, telegrams, and military documents. I won’t give away what I have found until the time is right.

I’m one of those writers who has to slink away from the world to write a book, so I’ve been mostly out of touch. Follow my tweets at @whitneystewart2 or @MindfulNewOrlns.
