Hi Mr. Korman

I want to start out by saying I LOVE your books. My favorite would either be Linked or Restart. I love how there is always a mystery in your books. I really liked how you talked about Jews in Linked. I am Jewish and go to a private day school and most of our school books are by you. 

Here are a few questions I have for you.

 

When you write your books is there a pattern you follow?

 

How do you answer all of these emails? Do you do them by yourslef?

 

If you were a 7th grade student like me,which book would be your favorite?

 

 

Hi, Emma,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to hear that you're a fan. I hope you'll want to read your way right through my list, which is now 106 titles long  with the reent release of SNOOP!

Your questions: I don't follow a pattern, but there are certain standards for middle grade novels,and I'm strict about those. I do answer all my emails, mostly because I write for an audience, and that's you. So I appreciate the input I get from you, and I want you to know it. And I once was a 7th grade student -- that's the year I was in when I wrote my first book as an English assignment. And just like now, I wouldn't be able to pick a favorite. Although I admit I'm very proud of the MASTERMINDS series, and LINKED. But I really do like all my work.

OK? I think that covers everything.Thanks again for your support. I do appreciate it.
