Hi! I'm a huge fan of yours, and some of my favorite books of yours are Speak, Wintergirls, The Impossible Knife of Memory, Twisted, and Catalyst. I live for your books. :) I've watched the movie for Speak and it is stunning, like the book. I heard you are coming to visit my school this year and I AM SO EXCITED. How do you get inspiration for your books? Thanks so much, and if you read this it means the world to me.

Laurie Halse Anderson:
Dear Laurie, (love wintergirls!) Hello. I'm about to graduate from college and I'm 21. It took me a lot longer to get my associates because I had to take remedial classes, switched my curriculum etc. I wanted to transfer to receive my BA but I might have to take a year off because of financial reasons. I'm worried that by the time I get my BA I will be too old. I keep thinking negatively about my future. Any advice?
