I have kind of had a busy schedule lately...James! <br /><br />I have kind of had a busy schedule lately and haven't been able to get online. (Sports and stuff) I went to the bookmobile and guess what book I saw!?! The Blade of Shattered Hope! I was so excited! I was already reading a book. My mom wanted me to read Pride & Prejudice so I finally decided to do it. But I checked it out anyway. I decided I'd read about 3 chapters and then get back to P&P. Well, I laid down on my bed and got under the covers. That was my second mistake. (The first was checking it out...) I was hooked on the first page. I ended up reading fifteen chapters before it was time to go to bed. My mom told me to turn out the lights. So I did. The lights in my room anyways...I decided that the bathroom light doesn't count! I finished it and loved it. I think you are an awesome author and I can't wait for more. <br /><br />Since I haven't been on in a while, I just want to say congratulations on everything that's happened lately. You definitely deserve it! I hope one day when I'm an author myself, I can have as much success as you. You have a rockin' summer! <br /><br />Oh! And I have a quick question. Do you still live in South Jordan? Or is it a different address. I'm asking because I want to write you a letter. Or are you just overflowing with fan mail? :D <br /><br />Dashnog-foliblu<br />Definition: type of sauce/dressing found in the Himalayas used on a special kind of noodles.<br /><br />Usage: The first thing the boy pulled out of his backpack was some noodles so he could have them with his newly found foliblu sauce.LouMachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12808619698818163391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8648274871264107501.post-77774715612777544022010-06-17T11:20:07.484-06:002010-06-17T11:20:07.484-06:00Oh yeah!
