Hello all, 

The award-winning and popular  tween and teen author Neal Shusterman is doing the circuit in and around West Hartford during the second week in October...he's confirmed with me that he's available Monday October 7th...   I'm hoping another school in this general area will want to split that date with me...anyone interested?  

Here are his criteria for the lowest fee possible of $1600 for a 1/2 day (one or two presentations plus whatever time leftover for autographing):

My fee is $3,200 per day if:
-- You are booking me in your area (Neal would ultimately decide whether the distance between Bristow and the other school was reasonable) for three or more days,  (this criterion has already been met...he's in this area the whole week of October 7) AND
-- I will be speaking to AT LEAST 800 students each day, (Bristow has 420 students...your school needs around 380 students) AND 
-- Every student will have read at least one of my books prior to my arrival, either individually, or as a class.

Please contact me directly if you are interested and in a position to confirm this booking.  
-- 
Sandi
