Kate DiCamillo

Hey, guys! (Or girls.) Check out what Kate DiCamillo said about writing:

"About twenty years ago, I came to the conclusion that it would be easier to write than not to write, easier to do the work, than not to do the work.
So, I do the work.
Some of the time the work does not go well.
Actually, a lot of the time the work does not go well.
I do it any way.
And then, there are those times (after days and weeks and months of the work not going well) when a story will suddenly, unexpectedly, open.
It is like trailing around after a peacock, hoping that he will fan his feathers.
When you least expect it, when you have stopped hoping, stopped believing, it happens.
The feathers unfold and you catch sight of some radiant beauty.
You think: I will follow this bird anywhere.
And you will. You do."

Cool, huh?

Hey, we got to be interviewed again....

Hey, I just read the interviews, and they (sadlly) need to updated. It says I still am writing Kanadia! And it doesn't show any one of our sucesses in the novel writing business. I didn't get very far down on the page (only about to mine) but if the first two are messed up, I can bet that the rest will be outdated as well. So...can we update them?

Hello, Everyone!

  President Fantasy here!
  I have a confession to make. I was reading some earlier blog posts, and discovered that sometimes I sounded kind of...mean. I never meant to -- I love you all, and don't want to hurt you -- but I think that, in the past, I have expressed my abnormally strong opinions a bit too strongly. :( A lot too strongly.
  So, as Wheatley says, "I'm sorry for being bossy...and monstrous." I really am sorry, dear fellow Sembers, and I hope you will all please forgive me. :)

New Blog Page

  Hi, all! Yes, I know that I promised a blog post like a week ago...and I didn't write it. :( I apologize. But I'm writing one now, right?
  I'd like to announce a new page I made. It's going to have all the best opening sentences of all our favorite books. So if you have any suggestions on what to add, please leave a comment. And definitely go check out what's already up there!
  Anyone need help with the five free copies? :)

P.S. You probably also noticed the totally different look to the blog. :) I re-did the design. What do you think?
