Hello Mr. Korman, I’ve been a fan of the books since the slacker era a while ago, and while growing up in a place called Toronto, I wish there was a little bit more diversity in the books just like in the city. Maybe some characters of different backgrounds like South Asia or Latino (those only come to mind) rather then the classic old happy white kid in big house. Possibly a new idea for a future book?

Thanks, Michael.

Great to hear from you, Michael. Thanks for being a long-time fan and especially for bringing up this very important issue. I read you loud and clear - as do most writers and content creators.

If you read my later books, I think you'll already see some progress in that area. That said, there is always more work that can be done. I appreciate your very important reminder!

All the best -
