OK Mini-Post
Tomorrow I'll be visiting 3 middle schools in Moore, Oklahoma as part of a support / fundraising effort for the kids and schools that were affected by the tornadoes that blasted through this area in May.
By visiting, I don't mean sauntering through. Or just clicking through a slide presentation. I want to connect with these kids and their teachers and what they've gone through, which means I'll wind up being emotional and spastic and exhausted by the end of the day.
Which means I should go to bed right now because I'm in a different time zone and I've got a super-early start time in the morning.
But I will be back with more, and hope to have a picture or two to share.
'Til then, good night from Oklahoma!

I really enjoyed your presentation today. I love hearing your stories of perseverance, your stories of what happens behind the scenes, and your stories of people you have met that influence your books. It is also good to be reminded of how others across the country felt about the storms last spring. Thanks for coming to visit our state.
You really inspire me, and I really really like you. You are AWESOME.
Thanks a bunch for coming to our school today! C:
