Okay, maybe the whole world doesn't have to be on the look out for me--Just kids in EdmonOK, Austin and Katy (TX), and Spring Lake and Point Pleasant NJ. Those are the stops I'm making on my spring tour. The kids, teachers and I are gonna have a blast, playing Mad Libs, barking like dogs, and reading from my newest books. My personal favorite part of any school stop on tour, though, is the question and answer section of my presentation. Kids do ask the darndest things--including: How much do you make? How old are you ? and Will you let Katie Kazoo switcheroo into me in her next book? When I'm in the room no question is off-limits (Even if I am less than exact in answering some of them! I tend to leave my age a little blurry and instead of an extra dollar amount I try to explain the basicconcept of how royalties work).
Touring the US and other countries is my favorite part of being an author. Over the years, I have met many many remarkable indie bookstore owners, teachers who are nothing short of heroic, and bright, inquisitive kids who I hope will be inspired to read and write books of their own after meeting me.
I usually post pix and comments along the way when I'm on tour. So follow me on twitter @NancyKrulik to see how things are going. Should be an interesting journey!
