MichaelDear Mr.Korman,
As of writing this letter I am currently a ninth grader. I remember being in elementary school when I started reading your books, starting with the MacDonald hall ones all the way to the hypnotists.From reading boots and Bruno fooling around to reading jax saving the world with his hypnotist powers, I've realized that i have come a long way and that what used to be my favorite books that I anticipated reading everyday have now turned into nostalgic memories of my carefree past. Sadly, nowadays I don't read books very often but still your books hold a special place in my heart. Writing this letter I just want to thank you Mr.Korman for contributing to my childhood memories as well as writing great pieces of literature. I hope you're doing well and I just have one question for you before I finish. Will the MacDonald Hall series get another book?
Sincerely,
Michael

Thanks so much for reaching out! I hear a lot from the longtime fans, and every single one of them thrils me! It's great to know that I managed to touch a lot of people and that they, you, remember me and my books.
Your question: The last Macdonald Hall Book was written in 1994 when I was a callow youth of 32. I think I'll stop at 7. I don't know if I could get back into Bruno & Boots mode after all those years!
Thanks again, Michael. I hope you'll give some of the newer stuff a look. THE FORT, which was Book#100, comes to mind.
Best regards, -----Gordon Korman-----
