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.

I grew up reading the Nina Tanleven series. I am so happy that the newest one is availble for immediate download. I hope you come up with more adventures with Nina and Chris.

Hi, Sarah -
Thanks! Glad you love the Nina books.
I have to warn you that the one for download is a (lengthy) short story, not a novel. I do have a novel half-finished but the publisher decided that the time for the series has passed. I don't agree, and if I manage to finish it at some point will either go to another publisher or publish it myself and make it available on-line.
I loved writing those stories - though they were also extremely tricky, as I had to have TWO plots - one for what was happening in the present, and one for what happened in the past - and then bring them together at the end!
