John! Today I heard about this visit and it made my day! I go to Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, and I can't wait to see you guys. I'll be bringing my book for you to sign - I'd probably love a picture too... what do you think?
hello John! I was going to send this to you via the ning but then i figured you get less traffic here and therefore were more likely to read it: a) come to the suburban los angeles area b) today, during my AP english lit exam, one of the choices to a question was "an abundance of conjunctions" and so i cross out conjunctions and wrote in 'katherines.' thought you'd appreciate that. and i definitely just broke some testing integrity law. c) have a happy friday!
please see comment on previous post. ok fine. i asked if you would please please pretty please come to Ottawa, Canada. It's awesome here. And we're part way between Montreal and Toronto... Perfect, I'd say. Thanks for all the awesome. keeley
Gah! I just read that and realized I'm a day late. I live in Holland, Michigan... if you guys are still around, you should totally come check out tulip time...
so glad you guys came and we're pleasantly surprised with all the hype! I think I was the oldest one there, hoping to get my book signed so my first year-students this next fall can hear about and read your books in my class... (and I told you that and you looked at me like I was way too young to be an-almost teacher... ha)
We're starting the initiative to bring you to Garden City, Idaho. We've got big dreams in tiny Garden City! A dozen demands and counting! We're calling nerdfighters to unite on the front page of our website... not to actually gather and unite there, but the call for the ultimate unification is there. But you probably knew that.... what I meant, I mean. I'm stopping now.
Considering you only live about an hour and a half north of me, I think should totally come to Mitchell. We have a state park, Spring Mill! Also, Gus Grissom was born here--an astronaut was born in a small Indiana town! It's either that or I'm coming to Indy.
Last time I checked, six whole people "demanded" you two to come to London! It's practically obligatory!
ReplyDelete(North Carolina totally makes up for the election of a joke of a new London Mayor, gobama.)
Woops, I take that back, TEN whole people!
ReplyDeleteLast time I checked, 1 whole person (moi) demanded you to come to my town. That's sad...very, very sad.
ReplyDeleteSo maybe I'll demand you guys in every single town/city near me. Yep. That's what I'm doin.

ReplyDeletejohn, if you are ever in london, please let the british scbwi people know because we'd love to organise an evening with you!
