Hey john im kalia from Dakota Hills Middle School that talked to you about how I’m great about using a voice in a character and i just wanna thank you for your great edvise!!! And i really want to read your next book that u were talking about to us because i love reading about blacks and whites because im a mixture of both and i like to see what both sides of my race are like so you have inspired me…
Thanks again, Kalia
Kaila, I remember you very well! Thanks for taking the time to write me. It was a pleasure to come to your school and spend time your class.
I’ll certainly let you know when the book comes out. You’ll probably hear me screaming! Take care and good luck with your writing. Remember, it always looks bad before it looks good. The best writers are the best re-writers. And when you hear that dialog going in your head, remember to write it down in your journal. It’s great material for your future stories, books and plays!
