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.

What's your favorite currently running musical? Any plans to do further musical adaptations of your work?

Hi, Leann -
What a lovely question. For favorite currently running musical, I'd have to say it's a toss-up between THE BOOK OF MORMON (hands down the funniest show I've ever seen) and MATILDA (which is flat out fabulous). However I haven't yet seen KINKY BOOTS, and I suspect it might be a contender.
As to the second question, oddly enough there has never been a musical adapation of one of my works. Instead, I have turned two of my musicals ("Dragonslayers" and "Out of the Blue") into books. If "Out of the Blue" doesn't sound familiar that's because the book version is called The World's Worst Fairy Godmother.
