One of the best parts of being an author is when a foreign edition of one of my books arrives. I feel like it’s a glimpse into an alternate universe where things are almost – but not quite – the same. When the book is set in a supercool Korean typeface, the effect is magnified all the more.

(Plus, I just love the thought that children in Korea – who I will never meet – will be reading this book I wrote one long winter far away in upstate New York.)
