I made a video about why you’re my favorite author. It’s kind of a hot mess. But we NEED to build the Gordon Korman fandom!!

Dear Jade,

You've made my day, and possibly my whole year! Thank you! You also proved that you know how to do something I don't know how to do -- you can make a video and post it online.

You're a natural, by the way. Great performance, even the giggling. And I promise I'll treasure it. ---Gordon---

Thanks so much! I can't believe it's just now that I'm getting up to making a thumbnail. I really appreciate it. I can't wait till SLUGFEST so I can make another video.

Update: I’m, like, famous!!

I got a whole 7 more subs in the past week and its all because I made that first video. If I hadn’t done it I probably never would have 😅 so I did! Also, I can’t believe Raymond Jardine linked my video on Twitter! I was just looking and it was sooo awesome!

Thank you so much for inspiration.

Hi, Gord. Guess what. It’s not just grown by 7 anymore… it’s 21 now. TWENTY ONE MORE SUBSCRIBERS IN THE PAST WEEK! Every day I wake up with a new sub! Yesterday, I had 30. Now I have 34!

But that’s not what I’m here to talk about. I’m really grateful to God for those subscribers but I’m even more grateful for what’s happening with the Positive Action Group right now! Recently, I’ve gotten the message that we’re allowed to have a BOOK CLUB in the elementary school after care! An entire club, Gord! To read! I am SO telling them about your books when we have it next semester! I’m so happy about that.

Wanna know what I’m really happy about? We’re having a book drive, and its going well! We’ve collected 151 books so far, and only 36 were from me. And that’s only from the high school which is probably like a praction of what will be in the elementary school—I just need to hang up those posters. This is going so well! Thanks to you, Gord.

Be blessed,

Jade

(P.S. I just got an email from the middle school lady saying we can do a book drive in the MS next semester!)

Hey, Jade,

I never got so much upbeat news all in one posting! I'm not even sure I follow completely, but your enthusiasm and joy have a habit of coming through, so good on you! I'm glad everything seems to be going so well! (Has it occurred to you that it's the efforts of people like you who make thing go so well???)

Hey, Jade

I saw your YouTube channel and, well I think it's great that you are doing this, definitely subscribing. I really appreciate that you're creating videos that are probably going to help me write a book. Keep up the pace!

Thank you so much! That really means a lot to me. I’ve recorded some new videos but I mayremake them so they are better quality. Thank you so much!

I didn't realize it was up to me to update it. I'm working in California this week and also having a short holiday with the missus, but I'll see to it shortly. Thanks for the heads-up.
