I'd visited his class to talk about my young adult novel, Fighting Chance, and a few days later the teacher sent me a stack of lovely thank-you notes from the students.

I'll take any compliments I can get.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17673578800047888317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119105822589181967.post-86366609935759684112017-04-21T10:43:45.726-04:002017-04-21T10:43:45.726-04:00The guys in Angola must love you, to be so flatter...The guys in Angola must love you, to be so flattering about your novels.
