Can you email me your mailing address? (I'm assuming that you don't want to post it here.) My email address is on the "contacts" page. Take care, Erin Hi, Neil,

It would be good to get a copy somehow, I'm interested to find out how what happens to "Ryan".

The cover photo was a surprise to me (it's a publisher decision, not a writer one) but I think it looks great. I never thought I'd get to "meet" the real snowboarder, though--brilliant! :) Do you live in Scotland? I'm not sure whether the book will be available in book stores there, but it's on Amazon. I'm afraid my give-away copies are all spoken for, but you could ask Orca, maybe. They're the publisher. That would be fun, to be able to show people that you're on the cover of a kids' book! Thank you so much for dropping by and leaving a message. And thank you for the cool stock photo! Wow–that’s really you? That’s amazing.

Anyway good luck with the book, any chance I could get a copy when it comes out?

That means a lot, especially coming from the person who writes the teachers' guides! I'm glad that my suggestions were useful. I'm a teacher, but I haven't ever written content for a teachers' guide before, so I wasn't sure exactly what you needed. I look forward to seeing what you came up with! Congratulations on your upcoming book, too--I'll look for it in the fall! My friend Nora Rock is having a book published with the sports series then, too. It's lovely to meet you. I'll see you on Twitter! :) Erin Hi, Alex!

I've just finished writing the teachers' guide for Boarder Patrol (thanks for all your excellent teaching suggestions, btw). And you know, I have to say: I LOVED Boarder Patrol. (This, coming from someone who's read a lot of Orca's novels.) You did some really great writing here. You had me fooled: I thought for sure you were a boarder. I'll soon be joining you as an Orca author: my first Soundings is due out this fall. Nice to meetcha! Alex Hi Erin,
