Hi. Sophia,

Thanks for posting and for choosing me as your subject author.

I started professionally at age 12 with my 7th grade English project, a book I called BRUNO AND BOOTS, which was later published as THIS CAN’T BE HAPPENING AT MACDONALD HALL. That was 40+ years ago, and I’ve been writing ever since. The list will number 106 titles with the July 1st publication of SNOOP.

As a kid, I was into hockey a lot and reading only a little. My Mom read me a Kurt Vonnegut book called THE SIRENS OF TITAN, which started me reading. I was a solid student in school, but never a superstar. My favorite sport is NFL football – NY Giants season ticket holder. I have 3 kids, ages 20, 23, and 26, boy-girl-boy. And a wife, of course, their Mom.

I’m proud of my work. My most successful book to date has been RESTART, which has been on the New York Times Bestseller List for over 4 years.

And that’s me. Hope it’s what you need. If not, you know where to find me — right here.

                                         Regards,                                                                   —–Gordon Korman—–
