Howdy SuperFolders!!!
We’re CHANGING the way we do TALK TO TOM.
From time to time, Tom will do a LIVE session and answer questions as they come in.
Stay tuned, because the first one is coming up SOON.
Until then:
Here are a few FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS, with answers!
Q: Are you writing more books?
A: YES!!!!!!
I hope to write many, many more books.
Right now I do not have a new Origami Yoda book coming out, but I do have:
The Qwikpick Papers series Book 2 coming in spring 2015.
Return of the Jedi, Summer 2015
McToad (a picture book), Fall 2015
A series with Cece coming 2016!
And of course, my other books: Fake Mustache, Horton Halfpott, Stonewall Hinkleman and Crankee Doodle.
Plus, Cece’s book, El Deafo, tells the real story behind Caroline, from the OY books.
Q: How do I write to Tom?
A: Origami Yoda
Abrams/Amulet
115 W. 18th ST
NY NY 10011
Q: Can I email Tom? Can I post my email or home address in a comment?
A: No, that’s not allowed because of Internet privacy concerns. You should NEVER post your home address online ANYWHERE. NEVER! And you should be very very careful with your email address as well.
Q: Is the TalkZone coming back?
A: No, never.
Q: Is this Website shutting down now that the series is over?
NO! The website stays! It’s a place for you guys to show off your Star Wars origami — and me, too, sometimes. So keep folding and submitting and having fun!

TomAngleberger
Oh, there are certainly some cuts on the finished product. But the basic form can be made with no cuts.
trollface273

TomAngleberger
Cool!

Mr. Angleberger,I have heard all the other SF’s talking about Doctor Glue and Doctor Who. I was wondering what it is about and what it is rated.
SFRobby
Toms books are pg, so I’m guessing Doctor Glue will also be pg.
Lord_Vader
What bout the TV show?
chewie5
I knew that the book would be awesome. But what about the tv show?
TomAngleberger
Ah, the TV show is sometimes PG, sometimes PG-13. It can be a little hard to tell sometimes and then suddenly…. EEEK!
chewie5
Where can I watch it? Also,what season/episode should I start with?
chewie5
Thanks Tom! Thanks DV!
SF_PaperDragon
Instrux? https://origamiyoda.com/2013/09/ornamental-origami-greedo/
TomAngleberger
Tricy…. uses some folds similar to deluxe R2s legs to make the eys, if I recall corrctyl.
Blaze
Sweet. Did you cut it at all?
Jessenia
tom, you have a loom, correct?
You said a “real” loom. What does that mean?
SFRobby
An actual weaving loom that makes blankets and stuff.
TomAngleberger
I have a loom, but it is not wide enough to make blankets. I use it to make scarves.
FolderPiggy101
don’t let vader choke you tom!
StorigamiTrooper28
Hey Tom. I was wondering. Although “Emperor Pickletine” is the last book in the Origami Yoda series, Are you going to make some sort of Spin-off series? I was wondering this because at the very last page of the book, there is a picture of Tommy holding Origami Yoda, who is saying/thinking “The end this is not, Hrmmm?” and the Mail-lennium Falcon is shown flying away. . . just wondering. . . man this comment is long.
Oh yeah, and when will you be coming to North Carolina for a book signing or whatever? Will it be in Raleigh? Sorry, I just really want to meet you and get my book signed.
SFRobby
He means we can continue the series.
Jawafolderz
Hey tom, is it possible if I were to ask to try and draw my paper towel Jawa, could you do it? (Please say yes)
Jawafolderz
This is referring to the mega doodle event later
Jawafolderz
If you can, please make a mental not to, I may not be on later.
Dude2014
Hey Tom
I love your books!! Can you try to make instructions for a clone trooper body. You are 100% stooky and waffle-tastic. Keep on being stooky and awesome sauce-ame
chewie5
Hey Tom, I was at one of your book signings in WV during July. I gave you a luke and a yoda. The luke had blonde hair with a white robe.
Brace_Face
Tom who is better? Darth Vader or the Emperor?
chewie5
Hey Tom, have you watched the new Star Wars Rebels? If so, are you going to fold the characters?
chewie5
SF’s, what are your favorite SW Rebels characters? I think Chopper’s pretty stooky.
Brace_Face
this is not a talk soon please do not make these comments. Thanks! 🙂
chewie5
Sorry Brace_Face, I did not know.
SF_PaperDragon
It’s OK, Brace Face. He can ask tom a question and ask the superfolders too. That’s not a TZ comment.
SFRobby
I like Ezra, Zeb, and Chopper the best.
Lord_Vader
I like (can’t remember the name) that guy who is a Jedi.

If you could travel to any point in time for 1 day, when would it be?
“Where the heck are we Doc?”
“No, Marty. WHEN the heck are we?”
🙂
Brace_Face
hahahahahahaha *back to the future reference*
lizardo
I Love that movie!
SF_PaperDragon
I know exactly where I’d go.
Arrow
I’d go to the day Star Wars first came out in theaters.
Lord_Vader
I would go to the day I went to the day I went to the day….. (Paradox Alert!) I actually would go to the day I became the Emperor.
SF_PaperDragon
Submitted Chapter Six! New record, never gotten past six before this draft.
TheEvilJawa
Tom, how did you get into writing books? And what was your unfinished novel in the 8th grade about?
SF_PaperDragon
I too have a novel I was writing in 8th grade I never finished.
TheEvilJawa
Tom, am I allowed to submit picture from when I visited JC and CJ if we are dressed up as our characters from OY: The Series? Or is that still against the rules?
CHIPPY_SLUSHER
It’s okay if everyone already knows and you are over the age limit…
TheEvilJawa
I’ve been meaning to tell you this for a while now, but when I went to the launch for Pickletine, I had 3 SFs come up to me and ask for my autograph! I thought that was so cool!
SFRobby
Woah.
SF_PaperDragon
Yeah, if I had seen you/recognized you/been to the book launch, I’d want yours too. Even though I don’t really like the OYEU or OY the series (I understand the low budget thing since you’re just kids) but I do watch OY the series anyway and I’m excited for Doctor Glue. Where do you even live? (Don’t answer that) Probably not near me!
SF_PaperDragon
Pickletine felt like the last book…. and yet there were total cliffhangers all over! Like how does OY work?
BatMan_Returns
Tom, are you subscribed to Loot Crate? It’s like a Magazine subscripiton that you get in the mail every month, except it’s a box filled with nerdy things. And every month is themed. September was Galactic. It had a Tribble from Star Trek, Pop Rocks, a Firefly Vinyl figurine, and a few other things I kinda don’t remember about. I’m trying to subscribe to Lootcrate for three months. It’s cheap. Also, is anyone here subscribed as well? If your not, than you should! You get exclusive things! Oh and there was a Han Solo in Carbonite Poster for the Galactic month. And a Exclusive POP Vinyl Groot!
SFRobby
Oh no, don’t let the tribble eat! It’s going to multiply!

TomAngleberger

DarkPVPHacker

SFTMGames
Tom- What is your personal favorite Star Wars movie? Mine is The Empire Strikes Back.
SF_Joel_Skyfolder
I like four because they blow up the death star and its just plain zigzagy.
Brace_Face
Tom likes Empire too.
Lord_Vader
I like III because it really is to of my favorite things: alibis and mushrooms! (This is a joke)
TomAngleberger
Empire!
SF_Joel_Skyfolder

TomAngleberger

Mace_Kendu
Does anybody know Tom’s address? I need to send him a letter.
yodasoccer12
I wish I knew.
SFTMGames
Tom has actually told us we arent allowed to share addresses, and he practices what he preaches.
Jessenia
LOOOK on the back of an book… Or scroll down
SF_PaperDragon
Yeah… SFTM games is wrong. You can send something to him, but no email. His address is
Origami Yoda
Amulet Books
115 w 18th st
New York NY 1001
TomAngleberger
You’re both right!
No one should share their HOME or SCHOOL address on the site. Including me! But you CAN write to me at the address PaperDragon gave. That goes to my publisher in NYC and then they send them to me.
yoda12

TomAngleberger
Check the search box. We’d had some good ones!
Mace_Kendu

TomAngleberger

yoda33

yoda33
sorry, stooky. dumb autocorrect
Thai
i cant believe that the end it is when i remember tommy saying “the end this is not” and what about that kid Micah (Captain Micah)? i hope this doesnt sound too harsh.
TomAngleberger
What that means, is that even though the series is over (for now) the story itself doesn’t stop. YOU can keep it going by folding, doodling and writing!
Thai
oh and by the way tom, its my own creation
Ghostbuster
Hey, Tom, am I allowed to post videos that I made on here without uploading them to youtube?
TomAngleberger
Nope… Sam can’t do that.
SF_PaperDragon
Gone nuts? Why do you realize this now? 😀
Seriously though what made you think that
TomAngleberger

Luke_the_awesome

TomAngleberger
Yes, but I’ve got MANY new books coming out, including the Qwikpick series!

Diamond_Yoda
Tom, I’m hearing a lot about this “pendragon” thing, and I have no idea what it means. Do you have an explanation?
TomAngleberger
Yes, I’ll explain…. one of these days.
Speed9548
Tom, what is Willy The Walking Waffle from? I have read all the books and don’t know where he’s from.

Jessenia

SFRobby
Tom, are you going to get a 3DS so you can play X/Y and OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire?
TomAngleberger
Probably not…. Welcome back!
Blaze
Hey Tom what kind of base did you use to make origami Rocket? I’m going to try to make one.
TomAngleberger
Both use the 3-fold anything puppet base.
chewie5
Hey Tom, will you post instrux for that rocket raccoon you showed in earlier posts.
sfyoda

CHIPPY_SLUSHER

TomAngleberger
It should take about 3 weeks…
sfyoda
I don’t know if I’ll last that last that long!
