speaking
I LOVE visiting schools, bookstores, and libraries and inspiring kids to write, resist and give back to their community. Happy to tailor presentations to the needs of the school/library/conference. Other possibilities include speaking more generally on her career path transitioning from high school to college to television production to full-time writer.
Interested in scheduling a school visit?

ABOUT GORDON KORMAN
Welcome to the wonderful world of a regular guy who just happened to write 100 books for kids and teens.
I was born on October 23, 1963 in Montreal, Canada, and grew up mostly in the Toronto area.
My writing career began virtually by accident when I was in 7th grade. The track and field coach had to teach English. For creative writing, he gave us total freedom to work on whatever we wanted for the rest of the year. It was February. That added up to a class period per day for more than four months. The result was my first novel, THIS CAN’T BE HAPPENING AT MACDONALD HALL.
I sent my manuscript to Scholastic because I was the class monitor for Scholastic Book Orders, and figured I was practically an employee. Seriously. (Full disclosure: my mom had to type my book for me.) It was a totally flukey and random way to launch a publishing career, but here’s the thing: It worked.!THIS CAN’T BE HAPPENING AT MACDONALD HALL was published by Scholastic when I was a freshman in high school, and I was on my way.
I’ve been writing for more than three-quarters of my life.
