I just finished reading the Hypnotists series, and I loved it! But I feel like three books is not a lot, especially since I'm a pretty fast reader. I think that you should write at least one more. The characters are super cool and I want to keep going with their hypnotic adventure!

Ps: You're one of my favorite authors!

Hi, Milina,

Great to hear that THE HYPNOTISTS went over so well with you. I hadn't planned for a 4th book, but I wouldn't rule one out either. So you'll probably have to accept an indefinite maybe. Sorry, but thats the best I can promise at the moment.

Thanks for posting. -----Gordon Korman-----

Hi, again. Not to be pushy, but I was thinking about a fourth book idea, (IF there will be one,) and I thought that maybe it could be about how Dr. Mako slowly starts remembering his life before Jax and Stanley X took his memory away, and at one point, he remembers everything and plans another evil scheme even bigger than "Worldwide Operation Aurora." Does that sound interesting? Again, I don't want to be annoying about this. Do what makes you happy.🙂

Thanks for your time,

Hi, Mr. Korman!

I'm writing a book, too, and I was wondering if you have any advice for me. You are an awesome author and I love reading your books. It would be really cool if I could get help from you.

Hi, Milina,

Welcome to the world of authoring! I can give you the advice that worked for me:

PLANNING is everything. You can't write anything meaningful unless you know exactly what you're trying to say. And that takes planning. I mean that you have to know your story and its aims from beginning to end before you put down a single word of it. When you know your plan, you are always writing TOWARDS it. The big thing, then, is timing your story so that the points come out in a timely fashion. That is what takes talent. You can learn to do it, but it would be better if you were born knowing how.

Good luck. I promise to write you a fan letter! -----Gordon Korman-----
