In a Publisher’s Weekly article, W. Bruce Cameron wrote “I am a newspaper columnist and a professional screenwriter, but my real love is the novel, for all the room it has for characters to come alive and breathe and face their challenges.”
During the live webcast, the author talks about his books and his writing process. He answers e-mail questions and phone calls from students and talks with students from West Springfield Elementary School (FCPS) via Skype.
