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.

hey bruce!
thanks for the tips. i'll keep them in my thoughts.
my new question is, do you have any characters in your stories that are "bully" characters?
i can only remember Billy Becker from Aliens ate my Homework. do you have any other characters who are similar?
i made up a character named Jax Tramin. and i am intending to make him a bully character. (also,i want him to be the character that people will LOVE to HATE!)
please let me know! i could use your help!

Hi, Byron -

As always, I am impressed with your dedication to your writing.

As to bullies - oh, yes, indeed. Many of my books have bullies in them. That is because they are so prevalent in real life, and so many kids have the experience of being bullied. Two specific bullies are Eddie in THE MONSTER'S RING and Duncan Dougal in MY TEACHER IS AN ALIEN.
