Laurie Halse Anderson:
How did you know you wanted to write? Lately I've been feeling the itch to and will spend hours writing down random bits that I'm not quite sure I'll ever pull together in book form. Did it start out like that for you?
Laurie Halse Anderson
Absolutely! The trick is to be gentle with yourself. Just write... keep writing!! It takes a while, but you will eventually figure it all out.

Laurie Halse Anderson:
My name is Ashley and i'm in 8th grade and this year I am doing a literature fair. I'm in the process of writing my paper on you and reading your book Chains. Can you give me any other information about you and your life or just something you might want me to include in my project? I was really hoping from an answer back from you, but I know like any other renowned author you are probably busy. Thank you.
