Hi, Sydney,
Thanks for posting.
Fun facts. Hmmm. My first ambition wasn’t to be a writer. As a matter of fact, when I was 2 years old, I expected to be able to grow up to be a dog, specifically a black Labrador retriever. I even sat under the kitchen table and was fed scraps by my Mom and Dad as practice. But that job didn’t work out. I’m a football fan — a NY Giants season ticket holder — so I’ve had a disappointing year in the sports world. And when I was a teenaged author accepting an award at a dinner ceremony, I stood up to acknowledge the applause and trailed my tie in the gravy on my plate.
Those are just a few items on what it’s like to be me. I’m also Dad to 3 kids, ages 19, 16, and 13, boy-girl-boy, and I really do enjoy my work.
Thanks again, Sydney. I look forward to my visit to your school.
Regards,
