Hi, Logan,

Coincidence, I would guess. Rick and I did do THE 39 CLUES together, but separately. He started the series with the first book, which was then handed to me. I wrote the second one, ONE FALSE NOTE, which then went to the #3 guy, Peter Lerangis, and so on. We didn’t have much contact with each other besides being next in line to continue the story. The only time we spent together was to produce publicity for the series and its multi-author status.

Multiple narratives is not a new technique, Logan. I don’t know why other writers use it. My purpose is to tell a more complete story by seeing to it that the reader gets all the different points of view. And my readers seem to love it.

Glad you’re enjoying your reading. Thanks for posting.                                                    —–Gordon Korman—–
