What has he written?

The complete list is here.

Will he sign stuff for me?

Sure, if you send it with enough postage to get back. Or you can order from Print: A Bookstore and I’ll go in and sign your copy.

Will he send me free stuff?

Probably not. Unless there’s a cool cause or charity involved, in which case sure.

Will he come to my event/library/classroom?

He would probably love to, schedule permitting. Drop a line to find out.

I want him to write a book/story/game/movie. Who do I talk to?

Great! Start with an email.
