I've been very fortunate to go from interesting chapter to interesting chapter.

Many writers will get a contract by selling chapters and outlines or something like that. I wrote the entire novel, and when it was all finished, I would give it to my agent and say, 'Well, here's a novel; sell it if you can.' And they would do that, and it was good because I never had anyone looking over my shoulder.

Lots of kids, including my son, have trouble making the leap from reading words or a few sentences in picture books to chapter books.

Keiretsu Forum is very unique among the various angel groups because of the diversity of deals we consider as well as the benefits provided by the close collaboration of our many chapters across the country.

I get a lot of mail from boys in detention centers, including one from a center where they only had a few copies of my novel. They had a deal with each other that they'd read a couple of chapters and then slide it under the door to the next guy. I think that's very cool.
