“I really enjoyed your visit. You have really encouraged me to go for my dreams. I hope that you continue to do this and I really hope that other kids can be as inspired as I was.” —Sincerely, Alyssa
“It was so incredible how much you love writing. Your dedication to what you love was amazing to see presented in front of me. You made me actually pay attention, which is rare for author visits! Thank you, so much for coming! ” —Riley
“I think that you were wonderful! When I was eight my aunt gave me the book All About Me. I really like it. It is really easy to fill up the pages because of all the great questions. Thanks again.” —Meera
“Thank you very much for coming to our school and giving your presentation. I know it inspired a lot of people to write, including myself. I don’t usually like to write, you made it seem interesting and worth my time. I hope you will continue to be successful through out your life; it’s a gift to be able to inspire others. Good luck with everything.” — Always, Chelsea
“I am writing you to say thank you. You have inspired me to write, not only in the journal, but in my spare time. Thanks to you, I got 100 percent on my first poetry assignment! You have helped me see more to myself than just a teen with a telephone as her best friend. I will continue to write EVERYDAY!” — Sincerely, Amanda
“I really enjoyed your presentation … I also see writing as an essential part of learning for students and with devoted authors, such as yourself, we will hopefully see an increase in writing in the classroom.” — Ms. Carthy
