Will I still be allowed to post here if I'm a Giants fan? I'm born and raised in NJ. And I guess I should lay all the cards on the table. I'm a die hard Yankee fan also. Ok so let me know if I'm banned from the site and please don't throw too many things at me! James, as much as I love your books, and I do love <br />them, please let me know if you are a RED SOX fan or an EAGLES. I am <br />praying that you are anything but..if you are this could possibly be the first time any of us have spoken to any of YOU (redsox and eagles fans) in a not so ill tempered manner or volent way and I'd have to think of a way to stay both a fan of my teams and a fan of yours. Oh please just like any other teams!<br />DaveDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07093088073769843713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-50877088912598313572009-08-02T08:03:52.751-06:002009-08-02T08:03:52.751-06:00Finally!

Like about a miniature-league football team of your favorite team. That'd be kind of cool.

THis guys is one of the best authors I have ever read. I would have assumed that you all here agreed. do me a favor, check out the review and post something for me telling me if you liked it or not. I have 2 comments, 1 from Magenta and one from James himself. Im not "advertising" my site here, but i just started it up, and my first review was of "maze" out of any book. Obviously, i loved it. It does not contain spoilers, i promise and Magenta will vouch that it got her psyched to read it. Please guys check it out and leave a comment letting me know what you think. I want to write more reviews, but need some feedback as to whether my review was great, good, pr I should not quit my day job. Sorry James, for posting about it AGAIN, but you know how psyched I was to get it up there, I want to share it with your other fans. Thanks guys, and id really appreciate it. And JAMES, quick question, how many copies of the 2 paperbacks are they printing for the "13th series"? Im just curious, and also how many copies of the hardcovers of them have been printed and sold? Thanks!<br />Dave<br />www.thelateinergangbookreviewspot.blogspot.comDavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07093088073769843713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-47579615185358460652009-07-30T19:33:26.826-06:002009-07-30T19:33:26.826-06:00Dave Barry wrote a book called "The Complete ...Dave Barry wrote a book called "The Complete Guide to Guys", and he talked about how any time a guy gets a serious injury, he'll never go to the doctor, it's always "just a sprain".Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13342192635635750418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-26241846992616648502009-07-30T17:14:55.953-06:002009-07-30T17:14:55.953-06:00Hi James!

I actually do have a question that I've been waiting to ask at an invitation such as this. :) How did YOU handle all the query/synopsis stuff that comes with trying to get published? Do you think you might ever post your query letter just so I might be able to see what a true (and awesome ;) author that got his book published/got an agent did? Because I've been looking around at sample query letters of books that have been published, but the problem is I haven't read any of those books so I can't determine how it relates to the person's actual book. I hope that question made sense. Anyway, I'll stop rambling now. You rock! :)Erinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-40953850718217750602009-07-30T15:57:20.523-06:002009-07-30T15:57:20.523-06:00Football season at my house started in May with pr...Football season at my house started in May with practices and coach's meetings. My son will be playing freshman ball, and my husband is one of the coaches. Problem is that I'm totally paranoid because my son broke his arm last year in football.

Wish I did, 'cause I'd tell them they have <b>got</b> to email Dashner if they want to get a Maze ARC! Otherwise he might pick someone else. (Whoops, maybe that wasn't smart. Now everyone will want to keep quiet in an effort to be a replacement winner. :P)<br />~ 3:Hmm. I think in your 13th Reality series, Book 1 was more fun and playful than Book 2 is so far (which I'm 12 chapters from finishing.) Think about the titles: "<i>Curious</i> Letters" (ah, how curious!) and <br />"<b>Dark</b> Infinity" (*gasp* it's dark! Dun dun dun!) It's probably the same with the Maze series, right? I mean, "Maze <i>Runner</i>" (ah, someone is running? How healthy!) and <br />"<b>Scorch</b> Trials" (Yow! That's hot! And there are trials! Must be dark!) Seems like a pattern, huh? Dashner likes dark sequels.<br />~ 4:Sorry. I haven't read anything by Stephen King.<br />~ 5:If it still hurts after a few months, I say doctor, definitely.<br />~ 6:Unless it's the Superbowl, I don't do Football.<br />~ 7:Isn't there something wrong with everyone's brain? Those weird things about your fans in previous posts proves it.<br />~ 8:Tax forms? bleh.<br />~ 9:I'll think of questions later. Gotta go now.<br />~ 10: Ah.
