Hi, Colins,

Thanks for posting. I’m glad you like my books, and very pleased that you’ve started writing a book of your own. I’m always pleased to be able to think that I might have inspired someone to write! Did I?

Tips: it’s hard for me to know what you’re asking about. My advice to you is to plan your story carefully, and then write slowly and carefully towards your planned ending. That’s exactly what I do. Don’t rush anything. Sometimes it’s the timing of your story — the speed at which you reveal your plot — that’s hard to get hold of for a beginning writer. Don’t rush things. 

Good luck, Colins. I hope you’ll write a lot of books, and I also hope you’ll continue to read and enjoy mine.

                                        Best regards,                                                             —–Gordon Korman—–
