Hi, MK,

Thanks for posting and for wanting more of my books. I just published THE FORT, which happened to be Book #100, so I don’t think you’re going to be running out of reading material any time soon! But thank you for thinking that way!

Your questions: The books in your head have to become fairly elaborate plans before you start the actual writing, and you’ll avoid the kind of breakdown you describe. Truthfully, I don’t really know what voice recognition software would add to my writing process. I really have no problem staying focused. And I never realized until your letter that RESTART has Aaron, Bear, and Chase, as A, B, and C. That was strictly by accident. They were always Aaron, Bear, and Chase, even before the planning stages ended and the the actual writing commenced.

OK? Thanks again for your interest in me and my work. I hope you’ll continue to be a fan.           —–Gordon Korman—–
