WHOA! 3000 VIEWS! WHAT!

By -
Ok, normally, I don't get emotional, but when I hit three thousand views, I literally started tearing up. I got into blogging because I wanted to just voice my opinion, and thought I would get maybe five views a day. Now I'm averaging at least 30 views a freaking day! Now, that doesn't sound like much, considering some viral videos get millions of views, but this is a blog, which is usually about books, which relate to school (ew!) while some dog running over a guy is hilariously funny. Seriously, thanks so much. I want to give some awesome shoutouts.

Shoutout to all my HMS friends (sorry for forgetting you): Nathan Root, Ivan Munoz, Hae-jeen & Tae-Hyun Ryou, Megan Ngo, Zackary Laymance, Michael Lord, Joshua Perea, and so many more. You've really made HMS awesome for me and I can't thank you enough.

Thanks to Deborah Mutombo & Megan Ngo: For drawing for me when I couldn't draw diddly-crap, and doing it all as a favor

Thanks to Jonathan Chaidez-Solano: For being awesome (and a great pal)

Finally thanks to Libni Quintanilla (sorry if I spelled it wrong!)- The First pen Pal I ever had.

Also, I think I will start accepting book requests. I've finished "The Candymakers" by Libni, and I'm starting to read Mr. Lumoncellos library!  requested by Ariana. I'm also thinking of posting people's stories & reviews: If you want to be featured in a blog viewed by a few dozen people each day and you don't have to give me nothing, let me know at justindoan8@gmail.com. I'll take stories, book reviews, anything book related.

My first author interview posted on this blog (can you believe it?)! Today's author interview features bestselling author of Ungifted, The Hypnotist, Schooled, and Masterminds  Gordon Korman! I asked him a couple questions about his books, and writing in general,which he gratefully responded to. Q1-  What was your inspiration for writing these amazing stories? For example, how does one simply think to write about an ungifted kid going to a gifted school? A1-    My story ideas just come to me. I don’t want to question it too much, because I would hate to have it stop happening! But really, most authors don’t require what you call “inspiration.” We write because we have something to say. That’s just about all it takes to start us scribbling. Q2-  I feel like you’ve been asked this a million times, but your strategy for avoiding writer’s block? A2- Can you believe it? I’ve never had writer’s block. I think my reason is that I plan my story thorough...

OMG ITS A SPY SCHOOL- FUNJUNGLE CROSSOVER FANFIC *preview edition*

By -
 Merry Christmas to all! Sure it's still two days before but who says we can't celebrate early. As a surprise I'm in the process of writing a Spy School-FunJungle crossover snazzapalooza fanfic! Here is a little preview which I know you'll enjoy.... “Are you sure this is December?” Warren yelled from the back. Chip went and wacked him on the head with a newspaper as if he were an annoying fly buzzing around you. “It’s Texas you moron, it isn’t like DC! Instead of snow and hot chocolate they have sandy beaches and lemonade year round” You couldn’t blame Warren though; we flew over sunny lands grassy patches when just a couple hours ago we were fighting through a biting wind and treading through a snow just to board the plane.   We were trying our best to get along because after the whole stop-SPYDER-from-blowing-up-New-York fiasco the academy figured we were ready for some field work (who knows what they were thinking with Warren). The agency had gotten ...
