Shout Out to Bishop Gorman High School

April 22, 2008

bishopgorman.jpgHello to the gang at Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas! We just spent a day together, with another ahead of us tomorrow, and I’m totally jazzed. Your questions and enthusiasm about HONK IF YOU HATE ME and BIG MOUTH have been nothing short of super. And your input so far for Novel #3 has been incredibly useful. Note to myself: Self, visit a school in EVERY city you choose to set a story! Truly, you’ve given me the skinny on a side of Vegas I would otherwise never know. I can’t wait to get to work revising the novel. But it’ll have to wait, because tonight I’m going to see Trent Carlini’s Elvis Tribute show. Research, research! And in the morning I’ll be back at your school for more fun . . . fun that doesn’t include another fire alarm, that is. I could handle another ride on the golf cart, though. I gotta get me one of those…

Real quick, here is a link to the behind-the-scenes-of-HONK blog series I told you about, as well as my post about my stint as a professional video game player and others you might particularly like. Enjoy! And holler if you have any questions or more comments. See you tomorrow!
