Hi Everybody!
I write to you tonight from beautiful Memphis! We had a wonderful event this afternoon with the fab folks at Davis-Kidd Booksellers.
Tomorrow…Wichita! Come see me at Watermark Books at 7:00 Monday night for the last stop of what has been a really amazing tour!
I promise to tell you guys all about it just as soon as I get home, get some sleep, and get a chance to write up all the awesome details!
-Ally

August 3, 2010 at 4:23 pmWow. We had no idea you were at the END of a tour.
Incredibly gracious and patient with a very long line of fans. The kids are still amazed you remembered their names when they ran through a second time. Strongly suggest future signings stock a lot more books – we’d much prefer to support independent booksellers, instead the mass seller – which thankfully did have copys on the shelf, for our emergency snag and run!
We frequent libraries- seldom buy new, and even less frequently hardbounds – you are one of three authors for whom my daughter has requested a full set.
Please let us know when(if) you get that PO box set up. 🙂

I live in the same state as Memphis, er, kind of. 🙂
That’s soo cool.
I really need to read some of your books, I’ll check you out next time i go to the library.
(My friend told me to go to your “So you want to be a writer?” Thing, and i was exploring 🙂 )

August 4, 2010 at 6:16 pmThank you very much for coming to Wichita.
I was so excited when I found out you were coming within driving distance of my hometown. (I still haven’t stopped thanking my parents for their indulging me with a 2 hour drive to a different city so I could meet you.)
My friend and I both had a great time at the signing. We thoroughly enjoyed hearing everyone’s questions and your answers. I really appreciated you answering mine. It was so great to talk to other Gallagher Girls and Kat-burglars.
The signing was the highest point of my summer. (The close second being when I got my copy of Only the Good Spy Young and realized that Heist Society was also in print.)
Again, thank you very much!

August 6, 2010 at 1:03 amHey, congrats on GG series being on best-sellers list this week! YES, this is the GG-power I’m talking about! Haha.
I have an idea for maybe a contest one day whenever you feel like having a contest. Make a playlist that emphasizes the emotions or events in one GG book–probably LYKY because everyone’s read that one! Haha. They type out a playlist and give a short summary of the song and why it fits so you don’t have to listen to a billion new songs!
Anyway, thanks so much for answering all those questions on GG4 because they were so interesting and thoughtful. Sometimes, I wish though that some fans would just read your FAQs. Slightly frustrating.
