Tom Spanbauer

Author of the year ( Chloe's year )
           
            The owner of the hands that wrote Now is the Hour is quite the guy. He is a teacher that lives in Portland, Oregon and is definately something else. He is the author of many other great novels like Faraway Places, The Man Who Fell In Love With The Moon, In The City Of Shy Hunters, and his most recent, I Loved You More. Luckily, he has a website all about him and his great novels.  Go ahead! Click it! It'll tell you some great things about him. He is one that has a lot of interesting things to say. If you go to the section tabbed as "blog" he has some friggen great quotes in there. (sorry for saying friggen.)
But mostly, check out his great novels. At least one. I really am enjoying mine. I think he is an all around great writer. From the looks of it, he is a great teacher too.

  1. I really like this blog post! The idea of an author of the year is really good! I can't say i've read any of his books but he seems like a good author.

  2. I think it is interesting how instead of focus in the book you talk about the author instead.

  3. Knowing some info about the author really helps you understand the book more in my opinion.
