As a kid from Oklahoma "The Outsiders" was an obsession! I immediately went down the "Rumble Fish." "Tex," "That Was Then This is Now" road. I don't know if this was at the same time as I became enthralled with "The Chocolate War" and "I Am the Cheese" but it all added up to me becoming a goth kid. I mean, naturally. So, is the musical really going to make us gold level fans cry? I HOPE SO

My first novel-novel was Gerald’s Game when I was 11 or 12. I didn’t finish it then though. I was “sneaky reading it” when my parents weren’t around (my dad was reading it). They knew though, and gave me permission to start reading Stephen King that summer, but not that one. My dad said it was “too adult” (it was). I was pleased to hear Paul and Scott explain it to Lauren in Threedom #200.

I read THE HELL out of The Babysitter’s Club books up until then.
