Hi,

I have several favorites. One would be Rootbeer Racinette, from one of my early books titled LOSING JOE'S PLACE. I also got very much "into" Mr. Aidact, the Superteacher, because of his very nature. And I found every single one of the clones from the MASTERMINDS series fascinating to write about.

I'm a great believer that writing about a character isn't enough.You have to KNOW him/her too. I'm not sure how that works, but these people -- the ones I really like -- usually come alive for me. --GK--

yes I have just recently read the super teacher project and could see that Mr. Aidact was more alive to me than the other characters (ironic I know right) definitely one of my top 3

1. Operation do-over

2. Super teacher project

3. Ungifted(the 1 one I read)
