Hi, Bristol,

Thanks for posting. I’m pleased to hear that RESTART went over so well with you. I hope you’ll want to read many more of the books on my long list — 96 titles and more on the way.  I wrote my first book as a 7th grade assignment. Believe me, I wasn’t trying to be an author. I was trying to pass English! I had 6 books to my credit before I got to college. And yes, it took a lot of time juggling to attend school and also write books. As for inspiration, most authors really don’t need it. We write because we have something to say, or a story to tell. That’s pretty much all it takes to start us scribbling!

Thanks for the invitation to visit Brownsville E.S.  Actually, it has to be official, because there are expenses involved. But all the information on how to get in touch with my office to set up a visit is available on the website under CONTACTS.

Thanks again for your message. I appreciate your interest in me and my work, and I hope you’ll turn out to be one of my super-fans!                                                  —–Gordon Korman—–
