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.

How long will you be in Lagos? So far, are you enjoying your stay in Africa?
Reply by Bruce Coville
Hi, Grace -
I don't have my schedule right in front of me, but I think I will be in Lagos for three days. As to Africa . . . I love being here. I have wanted to visit this continent for more than 50 years!

How do you think of ideas? Is it challenging to think of ideas? What is your process of thinking of ideas?
Reply by Bruce Coville
Idea are all around you. The trick is not thinking of ideas - they come when they feel like it. The trick is to write them down when they DO come. A lot of people have ideas, but they don't save them, and then they are lost!
I am so excited for you to come see us in Nigeria. I go to AISL (American international school of Lagos). My teacher tells me you are coming to seee us. No author has ever been to Nigeria. I am in 5th grade. Hopefuly i will see you.

Hi, Grace -
I'm very excited about coming to your school, too! I am fairly sure you will see me while I am there - fifth grade is home territory for me.
I'll look forward to meeting you.
All best,

Hi, Carol -
I'm definitely going to miss being at Boskone, and seeing you and your wonderful family. I think this will be the first one I've missed in about 25 years. But this trip to Africa was too good to pass up. Please give my regards to Bill and Samuel and Matthew. See you next year!

I am in my 30's and i have to say, I am enchanted with the Unicorn Chronicles. I felt like i was part of the mission to save the world of Luster. Is there any possibility of adding to the Unicorn Chronicles???
Reply by Bruce Coville
Hey, Brooklyn!
Many thanks for this message. I'm delighted by your statement that you felt like you were part of the mission. That's a great compliment.
As to more stories - I have LOTS of ideas, if I can just talk my editor into letting me do them!
