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!
jediluke321
How many submissions can one make?
TomAngleberger
One… your BEST
MasterFoldrGrievous
i know that you only said one but i am having a REALLY HARD TIME deciding what to put for the BEST showcase. so could i just cram 2 into one picture? Please?
Brace_Face
use a photo editor to create a collage of pictures that only takes up one picture
TomAngleberger
A collage is fine…. as long as it is ONE picture.
MasterFoldrGrievous
WAHOO!!!
SonOfDarthPaper

Diamond_Yoda
Hmmm… Sounds interesting… And some-what cryptic
King____Joel
Has my Han foldo showed up yet for the Best Showcase?
TomAngleberger
If you submitted it with the word best….
BlacksmithFolder
Hey Tom, I’m the one with the YouTube cover yoda superfolder. I was wondering, when you asked me to post a picture of it and a link to the video, how do I post it, and where do I post it?
TomAngleberger
Use the SUBMIT page
SF_Joel_Skyfolder
Tom, can you let Webmaster Sam update the site so we can take videos instead of just pics. This way, we don’t have to resort to youtube. I mean, we only get 2mb to post stuff. Here’s my point. LET US ADD VIDEOS TO THE SITE AND GIVE US MORE MB!!!!!!!!!
BlacksmithFolder
I agree with you on that one. I think it would be nice be able to post videos instead just pics. Please let us post videos. (what does MB stand for?)
King____Joel
Woah we have the same name
StookyFett
We could post video instructs!!
TomAngleberger
Can’t do it…. We’ve already got so many photos we had to pay for more bandwidth….
OragamiPro37

Foldywan21
U didn’t miss any thing .
SF_Mega3
I think it’s too late… :/ You can still submit your stuff for the new showcase!!!
Brace_Face
Yes Claire, of course! it just wont be in the old snack showcase!
Foldywan21
Are u sure! Every one is still doing Pickletine stuff and if it is done then I missed it to!!!! Nnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SF_Mega3
You CAN still make Pickletine stuff, it’s just that it won’t be in the showcase or the book because it’s too late and Pickletine has already been published!!!
Foldywan21
Okay so I guess I can say yes and no!
TomAngleberger
Sure, post anytime!
Foldywan21
Ya!
Foldywan21
Hey Tom it’s me again. I have a question for you. Do you know how to make the real origami Yoda if so post it please your my only hope!!!!!

No. he does not. but check out youtube! 🙂
Foldywan21

TomAngleberger
No I don’t////
Jessenia
Awww tom you actually cried for EP?!? Aw… That makes me sad… And makes me say aw… Aw….
Foldywan21
BARF!
Brace_Face
Come on, Foldy Wan 21, I did get upset a little when i finished pickletine! lighten up a little, man!
Jessenia
That was kinda rude Foldy… I cried so much
SFRobby
I felt exhilarated and exited. It’s said that the series wasn’t over!
SF_MyrMyr
SPOILER
Foldywan21
Sorry
Foldywan21
Sorry jessenia it was just a little dramatic but I’m really sorry for being so rude
Brace_Face
I was wondering if you still had the original art of pickletine saying “heh heh heh” and if you did then could i maybe have it ? also, if you could put up a picture of the origami __________ (its a surprise) that i sent you so i can see what condition its in that would be plastic dinosaurs! (but id like you to keep it) thanks tom!!!
Snoopygirl11
Brace I can’t wait to see your origami but almost 100% of the time Tom will not give away the original art of his book. Sorry and can’t wait to see that origami!
SFMichael
Snoop he gives them away on tours
Jessenia
91 percent he WILL. He gives them on tours, through mail… If you say that you are a SF, of course. Check when other SFs met Tom. You see lots of original art. (I have some :3)
PS- using the new io8! Confusing
Brace_Face
Thanks jess
Brace_Face
Or tom any original drawing of pickletine would be stooky! thanks! 😉
Jessenia
No Problem
TomAngleberger
I do give away some original art…. usually in person!
Brace_Face
Oh ok……

Jessenia
What if Tom just suddenly posted about a new book is out without warning us? Like it was a secret book that only his publisher and him know. I WANT THAT TO HAPPEN
SF_Lou
Claire

Foldywan21
That would be the BEST!!!!!! I wonder if he will do that?
Brace_Face
Probably not. Unless……………………..
Foldywan21
I think he is!
StookyFett
THAT WOULD BE STOOKY!!!!!!!!!
LividJawa

TomAngleberger
Jason has done all the covers for the series. He’s awesome!
He also did the tiny drawings next to the page numbers.
All of Kellen’s doodles are by me, though.

Foldywan21

stookyyoda5
Hey, Tom. Have you ever read The Adventures of Tintin? It’s by a guy named Hergé. They are really good!!!!! And when you are done with a book or two, you can watch the movie!!!!!!!! It’s by the same name, and it’s directed by Steven Spielberg, so you KNOW it’s good!!!
TomAngleberger
Of course! I love Tintin!!!!!!! #TeamSnowy
stookyyoda5
Cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s my all time favorite move/graphic novel/series (besides OY) ever!
Claire
I’ve seen the movie and read some of my friend Julin’s books

Foldywan21
It’s STOOKY!
Yaddle
Tintin books are TOTAL ROCKETS!!!! My mom agrees.
StookyFett
Tintin books rule!!! My favorite is The Red Sea Sharks!
stookyyoda5

AscajjV22

Plokoon22

Unknown236

TomAngleberger
True, this is sort of TalkZonish….
However, I DO! I love Greedo!
Jessenia
Tom, have you heard of the youtubers Rhett and Link? If not, you should watch their “show”. I like it ^_^ I also watch Tyler Oakley
Or you don’t watch YouTube?
SFMichael
Good Mythical Morning? I love that show.
I’ve been watching them for like 5 years.
Their main channel is really good too!
TomAngleberger
I’ll check it out…
Jessenia
Gooooooood Mythical Morning! Yeah I’ve been watching them for a while now
SF_Mega3

origamiman1234
Hey Tom num. 1 thanks for putting me in credits of picketing num. 2 I am coming to star wars read day
TomAngleberger
In NYC???? That would be cool!
I hope everybody goes to their closest Star Wars Reads Day event wherever they ae, too!
Spazatron
Hi, Tom, or any1 else that reads this, I was wondering if any other origami Yoda books will be written. even though Dwight gave him away in the last book. I’m hoping this for 2 reasons, 1. It made be feel kind of sad when Dwight gave away Yoda and I wanna read more about Tommy and Harvy and every body else. 2. I just became a super folder and I want my name to be a book, but the main reason if the first one. I hope you respond or write an other book. If you need some ideas I would LOVE to see my idea on one of your books. you don’t need to respond because if you write a new book ill be happy. thank you for your time
From Spazatron
ROPTheImmortal
SPOILER!!!
And for the time being (unfortunately) he doesnt have anything planned. But, head over to the origami Expanded Universe and submit a story and consider it a continuation to the official plotline. With this, OY is never ending!
SF_Mega3
Yep!!!
TomAngleberger
Thanks, I’m glad you’ve got ideas! And the EU is a great place to share them. (Or this site, too, if you want.)
One thing, though, I’m not going to be able to let you keep that Username.
“Spaz” is an ugly word, often used to demean people with epilepsy, autism and other situations.
So go ahead and sign up for a new account and Sam will be closing this one.
nickthefolder
Tom my Han that you took a picture of do I have to repost it
It’s my best piece btw
TomAngleberger
Please get a really nice photo of it and repost it!
Brace_Face
So tom… did you get my letter yet?
Lord_Vader
or mine? Or Both?
TomAngleberger
I’ll be answering mail soon, so I’ll be on the lookout!
Brace_Face
Super Stooky!!!!!!
BlacksmithFolder
I just made a “how to” video on how to fold my very own design of the cover yoda and I’m posting it on YouTube. It’s not exactly like the cover yoda, in appearance, it looks similar, but the folds are totally different.
TomAngleberger
Awesome!!!!!
Post a picture of it and a link to the video!
BlacksmithFolder
It may take a while. But I’ll try.
BlacksmithFolder
I don’t know how to. And where will I post it?
SF_Skyfolder
rancor instrux are awesome but can you make them more clear. and can you make a surprise instrux a month request thingy. i mean to post a new instrux every month
TomAngleberger
New instruc every month…. alright I’ll try.
The Rancor is sort of like a puzzle. Make those cuts and then solve it…
Aaronisstooky
