Mr.Pinkwater,

I am writing to you because I chose to complete my author study on you. I currently go to SUNY New Paltz and I am trying to get a master’s in elementary education. If it is at all possible could you please attend my last class (only kidding). If there is some information that would be beneficial to me about yourselve could you please e-mail me back. Obviously, information that is not on this web page. Maybe some new books that are coming out or even where your next appearance will be. It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Let me get this straight. You want information _more_ or _other_ than that which is to be found on this web site? You want me, personally, to tell you stuff you can use in writing your paper. OK. I will tell you something you can use: Somewhere on the campus of the State University of New York at New Paltz is a large building inscribed with this strange device: ""LIBRARY."" Locate this building. Go inside. Do not be afraid. There you will find actual books and periodicals, and can read what I wrote, and what others wrote about what I wrote. I am happy to share this tip with you. Feel free to pass it along to other candidates for the Masters degree.
