OMG.This pos

OMG.

This post wil onto be well-written, it will not sound like me, and it may have typos. I'll comment when I'm calmed down to confirm that I'm not an impostor. 

I sent an email to my favorite author.

And I got a response.

EEEEEEEEE!!!

Congrats, Mei! I know, isn't it the best feeling when someone you look up to writes back? It happened with me a little while ago.

That's so cool!

In sixth grade, I ran a tiny weekly newsletter in my classroom, and every week I would interview an author via email and get an interview. It was amazing! i'm thinking of compiling a book of interviews. Some of the people I heard from were Ruta Septys (Between Shades of Grey), Lois Sachar (holes, Wayside School), Cynthia Voight (basically every book on the planet), David Lubar (Hidden Talents), Polly Shulman (The Grimm Legacy), Margret Peterson Haddix (everything Cynthia Voight didn;t write), and I whole buunch of others I can't remember. I think I got about 35 total.

Authors are so nice!
