Hi Sam!
I checked the website with the goose on it and its bogus, and I look a complete idiot! Ah well, thanks for signing our books and agreeing to come to the school and remember you must continue to write crazy strange books that kids should hate because the adults have said there too violent but actually have the key to unlock imagination and hold back a kids overloaded truck of boredom! WOOO SAM! | |

Well, hello Sam! I must say, my friend and I were discussing literature the day before yesterday and we both came to the conclusion--the Black Tattoo is undeniably the best book we've ever read. TIM came right behind in second place.
Once again, I've got to hand it to you--as opposed to just writing an amazing book, you're an amazing author! Just incredible! In particular, the Kraken's appearances in the book had me grinning so widely you'd think my face was going to split in two--I'm a pirate fan, and seeing the Kraken portrayed the way you wrote it just made my day(s)! Also, the fact that the "happy ending" only surfaced at the very, very end pleasantly surprised me--I found myself cheering the characters on when I thought things were going to turn nasty. (Using famous landmarks as melee weapons, in particular, was an ingenious move. Well done!!) In any case, I'm looking forward to your next step in the sinister master plan—from the little hints that you've been leaving around your website, I'm pretty anxious to see what the final product will turn out like. I'm pretty sure somebody else said this once, but if you could ever find the chance to work pirates into your next (fourth?) novel, I'd be ecstatic! Keep up the phenomenal work! PS: One day you absolutely MUST find a way to come to Toronto! If I could, I'd help fund the excursion! | |

I was one of the people in Ashington High School who went to your book signing. I asked do you compare your charicters to yourself? but I would also like to know if with the evil charicters do you base them upon things that you don't stand for and dislike. Also could you give me any tips on writing as im currentley writing two books (one a fantasy and one a teenage drama) thankyou! | |

Hi Sam. You came to my school today, john hampden grammar, and spoke to my class.

Thanks for the talk, it was inspirational. | |

What a superb book. Develops at the speed of the Da Vinci Code whilst somehow also managing to develop character and keep a satirical bleak humour going at the same time. Couldn't put it down (aside from need to acknowledge children, wife, etc). Genius. I thought Black Tat was great, now I know I can confidently expect Sam's next book as another thing of wonder. | |
