Hope you will come a little further south of Bellingham sometime. I work with a number of troubled youth who would love to attend a reading. Some of the guys are native and at least one is a Spokane reservation kid. At the moment we do some work with your poetry and essays. He has read several of your novels. Right now he is readig Reservation Blues. Your talent is making a difference in this boy's life. Thank you.

My daughter and I saw you when you came to Puyallup years ago. You put on a great show!

Got ‘em this time, thanks so much for adding. We read your Diary of a Part-Time Indian book in this middle school book club that I lead and they really loved it, so I’m hoping we can take a picture together. The kids would be tickled.

I just finished the book and loved it. Oh my goodness, it stirred every feeling and emotion, I started reading only a page at or two a day because I didn't want it to end. I also could relate to some issues you wrote about that were so raw, I had to give myself a couple of days to process before picking up the book again. I have referred this book to several friends and they are also loving it. I live in Utah or I would be there!
