Today we have an amazing guest in the Tollbooth.

And down at the bottom read about an equally amazing contest we're running through next week...

Woo, a little dose of MT Anderson in the morning is just what I needed!

Come on, people, scare up those lines! We're waiting . . . and you don't wanna miss this prize.

Your Interview with Tobin

Great interview, Tami - thanks so much. As usual after reading anything Tobin has to say, my hold list at the library increased by 50

Julie- I find lines from Octavian to be his most horrifying, too.
But he has creepy stuff all over the place. Tapping into the dark side of human nature is often how he makes his humor funnier- another element of genius.

Thanks for participating, Julie! Love the darkness quote.

I'll be back with my quote - I have to go scare up (get it?) my Anderson books to find my submission. Meanwhile, I've bookmarked this one and will be quoteskimming from it come Sunday. Thanks ever so for this!

You're welcome... and pass it on. We want to compile a huge collection of scary quotes by Halloween! And gee I love your raven!!

"At long last, you may no longer distinguish what binds you from what is you." OCTAVIAN NOTHING, p. 312

Isn't that everyone's greatest fear?

Scary Tobin

Whoa, Kelly, yes, I love that.

I'm going to link this interview, Tami, and the contest, over at The Drift Record tomorrow (http://julielarios.blogspot.com/) And I'll mention the contest to my students and on the blog a few times between now and Halloween, because I would love to see people join in here and add favorites!
