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.

Dear Bruce Coville,
I just read Amber Brown is tickled pink, and I want you to know that I am too! I think you and Elizabeth Levy really got it right, and besides, it was fun! (And I love that Justin's little baby sister is named Paula.) Once upon a time I worked at Syracuse Stage, for Bob Moss and Tim Bond, and I also worked at DeWitt's Barnes and Noble, when your daughter worked there, btw. I hope you, she and everyone you hold dear are well!

Hi, Pat -

Lovely to hear from you! I remember you well, and I just saw Bob a few nights ago, when I ran into him at Stage for "Midsummer Night's Dream".

I can't tell you how it delights me to know that you think Liz and I got TICKLED PINK right. Honoring Paula's memory and style was our goal, and failing to do that was our greatest fear. So these kind words are much appreciated.

Daughter Cara is now personal assistant to Tamora Pierce, which seems to be a good match.

I hope you are well and happy. It's lovely to hear from you.

all best,

Bruce
Please wait...
