Only Louis." **Alyssa:**"Okey-dokey! Let's begin with our questions!" **Jack:**"Alright first question. Where were you born?﻿" **Kevin:**"I was born on March 20th 1954 in East Meadow, New York." //(Kevin looks offended)// **Alyssa:**"Moving on! Moving on!" **Jack:**"What was the main reason why you became a author?" **Kevin:**" Because I wanted to be like my favorite authors J.D. Salinger and Kurt Vonnegut. The were very inspiration with their books. The plots of the books seemed to teach the reader a lesson every time. I enjoyed that alot!" **Alyssa:** "That sounds interesting. Have you ever shown interest in any other subjects besides English and Reading?" **Kevin:**"I excelled in Math and did not enjoy reading until High School." **Jack:**"Wow! Math is so different from reading. Why all of the sudden did you like Reading?" **Keivn:** "I'm not sure. I guess in High School, we read a lot of novels during Reading Class and they kind of opened my eyes to the wonderful world of....Reading." **Jack: "**And your frist book was published in your first year of college. Is that true?" **Kevin:**"Yep. And it was the Sideway Stories of Wayside School." **Jack:** "Wow! Did it take a long time for you to think a story to write about?' **Kevin:** "Yes. It acutally did. As I said before, I was all that interested in Reading until High School. I spent my days focusing and enjoying Math. So all of the sudden wanting to write a book. It took awhile for me to come up with an idea I finally thought would work and be successful book." **Alyssa:** "Those were some very inspirational words." **Jack:** "I couldn't have asked for anything better." **Alyssa:** "Now, Louis. Where did you go to college?" **Kevin:**"I went to University of California." **Alyssa:** "Why did you go there after you were born in New York?" **Kevin:** "True. I was born in New York but when I was about six or seven my family moved to California." **Jack:** "Why did you chose to go to college so close to home, I think Alyssa was asking." **Kevin:** "I was worried about my Mother since my Father had passed away. I wanted to be close and be able to visit often to keep her company." **Alyssa:** "That's so nice! I can completley understand why you would do that! Right Biebtrich?" **Jack**:"Yeah...uh what is your favorite genre to write about?" **Kevin:**"I like Realistic Fiction the most. Because everyone can relate to it, since it's realistic." **Jack:** "I like Realistic a lot too. But I also like reading Fantasy books since they can make you feel what you can't feel in reality." **Alyssa**:"You're right Biebtrich. So Louis, You have written a lot of books but you tell us. Who is the most popular characters that you have written about? " **Kevin:**"I think Stanley Yelnats from __//Holes//__, people enjoy and read about a lot since //__Holes__// was made into a movie. Marvin Redpost from __//The Marvin Redpost Series,//__ was also quite popular." **Jack:**"We know about __//Holes,//__ and __//The Marvin Redpost Series//__ but, what are some **other** books you have written?" **Kevin:**"I have written.....

 * Alyssa:**"Have you won any awards for these books? I think everyone knows that Holes won the Newberry Honor Award and is now a Disney Movie. But what about the others?"
 * Kevin:**"Yes. I won the Family Book award. I guess parents read some of my books to their kids. I like that a lot too. I like being able to think at the end of the day that some parents are reading some of my books to their childern. I makes me feel so good about my writing when I know that childern are loving what I am writing."
 * Jack:**"I can relate to that with my music."
 * Jack:**"Where do you live currently live? If that's not too personal."
 * Kevin:** "I move around a lot but I currently live in Austin, Texas with my wife Carla Askew and my only daughter Sherre. We are a very close family. We don't keep secrets."
 * Jack:** "What?"
 * Alyssa:** "Nothing...nothing at all Biebtrich."
 * Jack:** "Do not-"
 * Alyssa:"** So! Louis...What do you do besides write? Do you have a lot of free time?"
 * Kevin:**"I have occasional free time. When I do have free time I like to play chess, cards, and sometimes the guitar or I just like to lay around and think."
 * Jack:** "What were some of the other jobs you had before you started writing? Did you ever pursue any other careers?"
 * Kevin:**"I worked with childern a lot. I worked at a school for a few years, and I worked at a Day Care Center. Also I was a lawyer."
 * Jack:**"I'm guessing you didn't enjoy being a lawyer very much."
 * Kevin:**"It was ok..but I preferred working with childern. I like watching young minds blossom and grow. I also liked their company before I was married and had my daughter."
 * Alyssa:**"That's the opposite of me! I can't stand hanging out with my siblings!" There always pulling my hair, kicking me, and other stuff like that."
 * Jack:** "Alright. Enough with your personal life. Louis tell us more about your family. Where any of your books based on your family members?"
 * Kevin: "**Well, when I was younger my Father worked at the Empire State Building on the 78th floor. I guess that's how Wayside School was inspired. The tall, building that my Dad would work in everyday is how I thought of the crazy, colorful, wacky school. I can still remember some of the time I went into my Dad's office."
 * Alyssa:**"That's a nice memory. Would you say your writing career has been taking off since __//Holes//__ has been made into a movie?"
 * Kevin:** "Yes. I think that a lot of people watched the movie before they read the book. And then the movie inspired people to read the book. Shila LaBeouff stared in it. He played the main character Stanley. And since Shila is so famous I think a lot of his fans watched the movie and then thought that they should read the book. That's how millions of copies of //__Holes__// were sold."
 * Jack:** "Shila LaBeouff rules!"
 * Alyssa:** "Shhh!"
 * Jack:** "Louis, have you ever had writers block? And if you did how you fix that?"
 * Kevin:** "I do what most authors do. Take a walk, Read a book, something that calms me so that my mind can flow and get new ideas. My surroundings helps me a lot though too. I look around and see beautiful creations everywhere. Almost anything, can inspire a book."
 * Alyssa:** "I completley agree."
 * Jack:** "Writers block is tough. I think everyone who has ever written anything can understand that. But most people don't know how to fix it. Thank You Louis! I hope that our fans who have writers block were listening so they can try what you do."
 * Kevin:** "Thank You. For letting my voice be heard."
 * Alyssa:** "Alright, I think that pretty much wraps up our show. Thanks so much for being on the show Louis!"
 * Kevin:** "Thanks for having me!"
 * Jack:** "Bye L-Man!"
 * Jack:** "He was boring."
 * Alyssa:** "He was not! That was a great show since we got a lot of useful information!"
 * Jack:** "You're boring."
 * Alyssa:** "Be quiet and help me close the show."
 * Jack:** "I'm Jack Biebtrich."
 * Alyssa:** "And, I'm Alyssa Cryusek."
