Author Visit

Frank L. Cole came to our school today. He is the author of the Hashbrown Winters series. We were very privileged to listen to him speak about being an author. He was entertaining and funny and encouraged us all to use our imaginations everyday!

-Green

"What is your second favorite color?"
-Red

"What year where you born?"
-1977

"How do you get the ideas for your characters?"
-I get a lot of the ideas for characters from my real life. I take people that I know and turn them into characters in my books.

"What's your favorite book?"
-I have lots of favorites, but if I had to pick one it would be Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I read it in one day!

"How long did it take you to write your fist book?"
-It took me FIVE years!!! But the next couple I wrote in only a couple of months.

"If you had a favorite number from 1 to infinity, what would it be?"
