Small update: New book is at the "typing stage," where I create a long Word file from all of the material I've generated in notebooks. (It's kind of like step three of the five hundred and sixty seven steps.)

I can't wait for your next book! So far, I've only read When You Reach Me, but hopefully, I'll buy Liar & Spy and Goodbye Stranger very, very soon. Best of luck with your newest story!

My daughter asks me, whenever we finish a book, whether there's anything else from the lady who wrote the "book bag pocket shoe" book. It's just such a favourite and she's enjoyed your others, also! Enjoy the writing & we'll be on alert here in Scotland for the new project.

Thanks for the encouragement, you guys!! It means a lot.
Read all of your books! Loved When You Reach Me and First Light. First Light was very good! Can't wait for your next book!!
I can't wait! I really love your books, especially "When You Reach Me". Please write fast!
