Truly One of the Better Books in the Landmark Series

I am a 15-year-old fellow author who has been published by Landmark Editions. My book, "Don't Bug Me!", won the competition the year after Anna's.I still remember recieving her book in the mail for the first time. I was in awe. The artistry, the writing. Out of all the Landmark books, her's was the one I turned to for further inspiration. Even though my book is on a completely different topic, I still feel Anna's jumpstarted me in the right direction.After I won the competition, I hoped that I would be able to meet Anna and tell her how much I loved her book. The editors at Landmark would always say to me, "We should never get you and Anna in the same room. You'd be laughing all night."When I learned of Anna's death, it saddended me greatly. She was extrodinarily talented, and was a great loss to the writing and illustrating community. She will be truly missed.I strongly suggest you to read "The Timekeeper". It is a book of rare form, for an author at any age.

I Love it.

As a personal friend of Anna, I was hurt very much by her death. This book was her finest accomplisment in art and in writing, but her life was a greater work than her book. For anyone who has not read the Timekeeper, I encourage you to do so.
