Hi Everybody,
I hope you’re all enjoying the summer. I know I am! One of the reasons I’m enjoying it is because of all the great email and snail mail I’ve gotten from all of you.
Nohemi, Sumiyah, and Taryn, thanks for the nice comments!
Hannah, you ask really good questions and here are some answers:
I started writing when I was in 3rd grade and I started writing the Mallory books about six years ago. I get my ideas from lots of places: things that happened to me when I was growing up, things that happen to my kids, and i like to make up a lot of stuff too!
To all my snail mail writers: many thanks for your letters! They are so much fun to read and I love looking at all of your great drawings (especially the pictures of Mallory).
To everyone, keep reading, keep writing, and most of all . . . have a great summer!
Talk to you soon!

keren,
Thanks so much for writing! I’m so glad you like reading about Mallory. I have some good news for you: There are going to be lots more Mallory books. When I said, “My Latest Book”, I just meant the last book I had written. Sorry, if that wasn’t clear. I hope you’ll keep reading about Mallory!
Big hugs!
