First Mail!

I just got a well-written letter from Josh, an eighth-grader in Pittsburgh, who had clearly read the book carefully and had a host of good questions for me. More than anything else that's happened so far, that letter made me realize that the book is no longer just a Word file on my hard drive. Very exciting. Thanks, Josh!

Reading Review - "Magic Hour" Link

The reading last week went very well. It was fantastic to read in front of so many people, and I particularly enjoyed seeing all the undergraduates in the audience. Due to the time limit, I was only able to read the first twenty minutes of my story Magic Hour, but because people have asked what happens next, I've decided to post the story here. Please take a look!
