SURPRISE!!!!

You know what? 


Gary D. Schmidt, the author of Okay for now came to our YA Lit class and gave us a warm and rich speech right this afternoon! I'am not lying! 

He sat right in front of me, smiling and eye-contacting, talked about the ideas he brought into his novels naturally and answered everyone's questions gently with plenty of thoughts and examples. That is just the way I could feel when I was reading his novel. There is no direct comments on the characters or convinces to the readers. What I saw in his novel is full of the characters' behaviors and words that make sense.
