You're sad-looking," she said. "My grandson used to be such a happy boy. He used to write me stories. I remember the first story he ever wrote me, 'Once upon a time, there was a boy.' And that became 'Once upon a time there was a boy who wanted to fly.' And they kept getting better and better over time. I never found out if the boy got to fly." I gave her a small smile. If only she knew the boy's wings had been clipped.
Chris ColferIโm not really afraid to be my awkward self, and I know thereโs lots and lots of other people just like me out there that are awkward themselves. And I think they just appreciate that Iโm not afraid to say the weird things that I say and tweet the obnoxious things that I tweet. But Iโve tried being other people and myself suits me the best. I think you just be honest. I think people respond to honesty.
Chris ColferI was very tiny...I spent most of my time stuffed into lockers. Thank god for cell phones, or I'd still be there.
Chris ColferBeing a best-selling author just means the world for me. Some of my happiest memories, growing up, are being at book stores and reading books I couldn't afford, as a kid, and the midnight parties, waiting for the next Harry Potter book. The fact that I have that straw in my cap means more to me than anything I've ever accomplished before.
