Stephanie asked C.T. Walsh:

Not a question, but a compliment! I picked up the book because I work in a middle school, with sixth grade specifically. I am laughing so hard and can see some of my kids in Austin's situation. Thank you for creating a realistic voice for the middle school crowd. And this has to contain a question mark?

C.T. Walsh That's so funny about the question mark...I'm so glad you enjoyed the book. Some of the situations were my own from middle school (I did ask a girl out on the track and then dumped her a week later via locker note- she deserved better) while others were made up or exaggerated. Austin is always getting himself into hilarious situations and that's why we love him. Be sure to check out book two. There's a new villain and you get to see Austin attempt to win the lead in the school play. Guaranteed LOLs...Good luck with the new school year!
