Cade PiersonIn your book Toilet Paper Tiger I noticed that Corey work with Kristy. Why? Why not just stay out of it and wait for the letter to The league president to get replied to?

Thanks for posting. Re: your question: Because it suited the story. Everything that happens in fiction suits the story. e.g. if Kristy had decided she wasn't intersted in baseball, then the book would hae been about nothing, right? And one of the things that rarely has to be explained is "why." It just is.
OK? You didn't mention it, but I hope you enjoyed my books and that you'll want to go on to read a whole lot more of them!
