Marty McGuire Chat Recap

Before you check out the Marty McGuire chat archives I think you should think about reading Mr. Schu’s Interview with Kate Messner.

Wasn’t that interview amazing? Did you just preorder Capture the Flag? I did.

Now be sure to check out Nerdy Book Club award winning author Kate Messner’s Nerdy post.

I love Kate’s Nerdy post. Actually, I love everything Kate writes.

*****************************************

On Wednesday May 23, Mr. Schu and I hosted a Twitter book club. Our topic was Marty McGuire. I would like to thank everyone that took time out of their busy lives to celebrate Kate’s book with us. I had a blast!

heidihuestis #martymcguire promotes mucking around and getting dirty. Dirt helps the imagination, I think!#Martymcguire -7:10 PM May 23rd, 2012
