School Book Event Recap

I would like to thank the students and faculty of KLO Middle School for having me to attend their Human Library event yesterday! This event had many people from all different backgrounds such as WWII veterans, computer techs, airport administrators, and authors come and sit with rotating groups of four for thirteen minutes sessions where we would explain to the students who we were and what we did. I was able to sit with over thirty students and explain all about the Titan books, my writing process and how I developed it and what I have learned about publishing. It was a great time and hope to be able to do it again. It was great to see so many of the students react to the books as well as see some that were interested in writing themselves. It did become a bit hard by the end as I had been going for two hours and couldn't remember what I had said to what group any longer, but in the end it all went very well. This was only the second school I had been to since I first started publishing Titan. It was nice to be able to interact with a smaller group of students each time so I could talk and answer questions better with them. next up Bankhead Elementary!
