Gordon Korman visits LPMS

Author Gordon Korman visited and spoke to the students at Liberty Park Middle School, Pizitz Middle School, Liberty Park Elementary and Vestavia Hills Central.

Korman signed his first book contract in eighth grade and his first novel was published when he was a freshmen in high school. His second book was published around age 16.

Korman encouraged young writers to find the thing that they loved and write about that thing. After he spoke, he took the time to autograph student's books and later led an adventure writing workshop at Liberty Park Middle School.
