Hi Everyone!

I’m Laurie Friedman, creator of the Mallory series, and this is my blog.  I’ll be telling you a little bit about myself, what it’s like to be a writer, and keeping you up to date on what’s happening with Mallory.   I’m super excited to be here and super excited that you’re here too!

If you’re not 100% sure what a blog is, I’ll tell you.  A blog is a lot like a journal except there are two BIG differences:

BIG difference #1:  When you keep a journal, you put your thoughts in a book with pens and markers.  When you keep a blog, you just click on your computer and start typing.

BIG difference #2:  When you keep a journal, you usually keep it  hidden away because you don’t want anyone to read what you’ve written.  But a blog is totally different, and especially this blog.

I want you to read what I’ve written and I want you to write back.  It’s super easy to do.  If you want to respond to my posts (blog lingo for “what I’ve written”), all you have to do is scroll to the bottom of this entry and click on “Post a comment.”  You will be taken to a new page where you can reply to my blog entires!

I hope you’ll write in because I’d love to hear from you!  I’ll post a lot of your comments on the blog and try to answer as many of your questions as I can.

I’ll be posting (which means writing something new on the blog and answering your questions) at least once a week.  I hope you’ll check in to see what’s new and what kids from all over have to say.

Talk to you soon!

Laurie Friedman
