My folks made me a Jawa costume for the Halloween after 'Star Wars' opened in '77.

My foray into young adult lit was by no means planned. I wrote the first 'Alfred Kropp' book as an adult novel, which everyone loved but no one would publish - until I changed my protagonist from a thirty-something P.I. into a 15-year-old kid. After that, it was off to the races, and I am so glad.

‐‐ Nick Frost

My formative years were in Houston. I was in middle school, and everyone was dropping the last half of their names and adding an 'o' to the end.

My forms are not abstractions of things in the real world. They're also not symbols.

My four years in Russia end, then, in dramatic fashion: with a textbook Soviet-style expulsion. I am the first western staff correspondent to suffer this fate since the end of the Cold War.
