Love to hear the author's side of our conference. I was sitting in the back for your author session and across the aisle from me was author Wendy Mass. I asked her if listening to an author is just as exciting for her as it is for us media specialists, and she emphatically replied "oh, yes!" It is nice to live in a world where authors are rock stars!MichelleJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30155656.post-90066200567328857262009-10-03T18:52:39.936-07:002009-10-03T18:52:39.936-07:00Mr Asher- I am an elementary school media speciali...Mr Asher- I am an elementary school media specialist, so I do not always get to read all the books on the Fl teen list. But after today speeach and sesion I purchased you r book and read it in one day. I loved it. You signed it for my children and I am so greatful. My daughter has alreadystared reading it and my so will soon. I must say even I cannot always motivate him to read but I told him about you books and he is looking forward to reading it. I alos told my kids about the Grover ref. They laughed. Thanks for writing about a topic that many kids have a hard time talking about. I hope after reading your book people will see why it is so important to treat all people with kindness and respect. You just never know what that person is going through.

I wish I'd known about your acceptance speech, I would have snuck in! Pretty funny about winding up at that other conference for breakfast. I kept checking out those guys (not in THAT way!) and wondering what they thought of all of us. <br />I hope you guys are having fun in the sun and with The Mouse. <br />I really had fun meeting you and your wife, and look forward to crossing paths again soooon, maybe on the left coast next time. :o)<br />Cheers!<br />WendywendyMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06078129749438433534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30155656.post-72509901189015974812009-10-02T06:41:06.408-07:002009-10-02T06:41:06.408-07:00Yay Jay!

As an aspiring author I congratulate you on your moving characters and lightning quick pacing. I couldn't put it down and after finishing it I told everyone and their brother to check it out. I hope to see more from you in the future.<br /><br />-Steve-Stevehttp://www.facebook.com/tos.php?api_key=85ec9d3a3d69cabade8e7cc05d74f62a&next=http%3A%2F%2Fapps.facebook.com%2Fwhatclassicnlpyjxm%2Fquiz%2Fquestions%3F_fb_fromhash%3D44cb68f5fbe42eb7ab55a1434fe17672&v=1.0&canvas#/profile.php?id=100000123560996&ref=profilenoreply@blogger.com
