Welcome to the Guestbook!

I’m always eager to read your comments about my books and stories, so please feel free to pitch in. Here are a few things for you to know:

1) I answer the messages here personally.

2) No message shows up here until I actually answer it to prevent spam and other inappropriate postings. So there will sometimes be a delay before your message posts, especially if I am traveling.

3) Teachers, a gentle request: Please do not have multiple children send me variants of the same message. A group email is much easier to respond to and not such a drain on my time. My thanks in advance for being alert to this.

Hi, Sasha -

The answer is simple: Start by writing! Just write and write and write. Later, you can find many books on the art and craft of writing. One good one for kids is SPILLING INK by Anne Mazer and Ellen Potter. It's the best book for young writers that I know.

Good luck!
