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!

Brace_Face
Also,could you see about coming to Anchorage,Alaska anytime within the next couple of years??
StookyFett
Not likely ;( He might not come.
TomAngleberger
I checked it…. Sorry about Alaska. Not sure I’ll be taking any trips that big for awhile…
Lord_Vader
Random Factz: Anchorage is at or above the 4th mark for largest cities in the US. (By area.)
jediluke321
Tom, you said the movie “Babe” was one of your favorites. Did you mean the movie were there is a pig named Babe? If so I just watched it tonight. I RECOMMEND IT TO ALL SUPER FOLDERS.
TomAngleberger
That’s the movie!!!
Not to be confused with the movie about Babe Ruth, which I liked a lot.
BUt Babe the Gallant Pig is a masterpiece!!!!
jediluke321
Did you know there is a 2nd movie. Babe Pig in the City
robin

lukeskyfolder9
hi
Darth_Lukeious111
Tom, I have made a 9-fold Yoda that’s simple as the 5-fold. *Yoda voice* Show instructions I will. Easy it will be.
TomAngleberger
Great!
sfdwighttharp
hi
BatMan_Returns
Tom, the next showcase should be this: We make instructions for anyone Like Foldy-Wan or BatMan, and You fold them!!! I think we will get like 10 or 12 submissions like the other Showcase….
SF_Mega3
That’s actually a great idea!!!
TomAngleberger
I like it!
Darth_Lukeious111
I hate to complain, Yaddle, but Wowza234 said “instrux for 15 stookys.” No “Instructions, please!”!!! Tom, did you make that huge Jabba?
lukeskyfolder9
will you make new books for the 3 new star wars movies coming out
Origamimaster1010
7 is in 2015, 8 is in 2017, and 9 is in 2019. p.s Luke Skywalker dies.
BatMan_Returns
?! Dude, not cool.
anikanskyfolder123
Spoiler 🙁
Origamimaster1010
Just trying to help guys! Jeewezz
lukeskyfolder9
Luke Skywalker dies!
Origamimaster1010
Yep, look Luke Skywalker up on wookapidea. Its there.
lukeskyfolder9
which movie
Origamimaster1010
Ep 7 is when he dies.
lukeskyfolder9
oh well he was getting old any way 🙂
Origamimaster1010
It’s kinda sad that the acators will be “very” old. 🙁
Origamimaster1010
I wish that they weren’t old. 🙁
SF_PaperDragon
I think he’s just doing return of the jedi. if he’s lucky he might get asked again to write a sw novel for disney.
SF_PaperDragon
well of course he’ll probably write more sw books but i mean if he’s lucky he’ll be asked to novelize one of the future episodes.
TomAngleberger
I might write more after those movies, we’ll have to see.
Also, Luke Skywalker’s death is a very unconfirmed rumor for the movies. The movies are NOT following the EU. So, for example, it’s quite possible that in the new movies Luke will not Mara Jade, etc…
lukeskyfolder9
yay you might write more!
Lord_Vader
Chewbacca dies
Lord_Vader
Well in the wookiepedia it says that
Origamimaster1010
I know, I read that. Look on youtube for a star wars 7 traller. In one of them, it has chewys skin hanging, like a rug.
sfdwighttharp
Here a list of the dead people coming back: Obi Wan, Boba Fett, and Mace Windu
Origamimaster1010
Hey Tom, I am your biggest, biggest BIGGEST, fan. I was thinking. How long does it take for origami to show up? Its been 4 days!! I just want to show you my origami. Reply back soon!!!
Diamond_Yoda
2-3 weeks
Origamimaster1010
2-3 WEEKS!!! THATS CRAZY!! WHY DOES IT TAKE SO LONG!!!!!!
Diamond_Yoda
look at the tips from Webmaster Sam
Origamimaster1010
I MAY BE YOUR LEAST BIGGEST FAN!!! (sorry, didn’t mean to yell.) :d
Origamimaster1010
I DID!!! ONE MIN I LOVED THIS SITE, AND NOW I HATE IT!!!
Diamond_Yoda
NO, hate is a strong word
Origamimaster1010
More like a weak word.
Darth_Lukeious111
Hate goes to the dark side. So Diamond_Yoda, right you are.
Origamimaster1010
Right you are, right you are, what are you, a jedi master all of sudden? Jeez
Origamimaster1010
Are you all gaining on me? I have some good origami that I might as well not show to you.
Origamimaster1010
Scratch that, I am not your biggest fan anymore.
Origamimaster1010
I’m your middle fan.
SF_PaperDragon
ouch, dude.
StookyFett
I’m your number 3.14159……… fan.
TomAngleberger
Good grief….
There’s a long wait, because there’s a lot of people that submitted origami before you.

SFRobby
Tom, how do we ask EACH OTHER questions? Cause some younger SFs who want to talk to each other cant because they don’t have emails and there arent SFRSDPs on this site.
TomAngleberger
That’s a problem, but I don;t have the solution.
SFRobby
Tom, do u liek mudkipz?
TomAngleberger

AwesomeOwen

??? ? ?????That’s Japanese for “I like Totoro!’
—-
I used to live in japan, without symbols, if I’m asking you do you like to toro, it says
Totoro ga suki desu ka?
Lel
StookyFett
Sorry, the site changed the Japanese to ????????.
TomAngleberger
I guess this site can’t handle Japanese characters….
I have rewatched Totoro many times and I normally do not rewatch movies.
TomAngleberger
HEY SFs!
I just went through and answered a bunch of questions, so scroll on down…

SF_PaperDragon
Hey Tom! Looks like I missed you, but my Flying Vader works! Either it performs an excellent nosedive or it spins (in an admittedly uncoordinated fashion) while it flies. It’s pretty awesome!
sf_c3p0
Tom, did you enjoy your tour?
TomAngleberger
Yes,I did! I was kind of sad about the end of the series, but seeing SFs in person got me excited about writing again!
sf_c3p0
Well, I’m glad you enjoyed the tour! I also like your books, I think they are STOOKY!

Lord_Vader
Tom, what is your favorite NFL team/college football team?
TomAngleberger
I’m not much of a football fan… But I enjoyed cheering for the Chicago Bears while I was in Chicago on my tour.
Jessenia
Tom, what are your talents/stuff you do? And don’t say you don’t have any!! 😛
You seem like you were a comedian before at the Chicago event, an origami artist, author, illustrator…
TomAngleberger
Uh…. didn’t you see me juggle with that dude? That’s my main thing.
Jessenia
Yeah.
SF_PaperDragon
If the TZ is shut down, you should get rid of the page.
CHIPPY_SLUSHER
agreed.
Lord_Vader
NOT AGREED
TomAngleberger
Isn’t it gone?
Jawafolderz
Thanks Tom! Jawa and I are sooooo happy that we were featured on the showcase! To you and Sam, thanks!
TomAngleberger
You did excellent work!
Jawafolderz
Hey Tom. When you have another tour, could you put the Barnes and Nobeles in Indiana on the list? There’s a LOT of super folders here!
Lord_Vader
And UT Tom? I also sent a letter…
TomAngleberger
I hope I can get out there soon! Sorry I didn’t make it on this trip.
I did both UY and Indiana last fall….
Lord_Vader
UT, Tom. You spelled UY. Just sayin

Diamond_Yoda
REALLY?
yodamanbro
hey Tom can you post the instructions on book Yoda? (please)
TomAngleberger
You mean cover Yoda? there are some good SF-Made instructions around….
SFMichael
for me i always feel happy when i see someone say doctor glue, or something like that. Because i started that EU series 🙂 , JC came up with the name, but its good to see something i started to be kinda known!
stookyyoda5
Doctor Glue.
TomAngleberger
I love Doctor Glue!
SFMichael
How long will it take for my letter to get to you?
SFMichael
well, its a letter, but it wouldn’t fit in an envelope, so i put it in a small packaging thing… will that effect the length it will take to get to you???
TomAngleberger
It can take a month or two to get here. Then I can’t always answer right away…. So I’m afriad it will be awhile….
King_jedi
Tom what is your favourite movie? (This has probably been asked before).
King_jedi
I’m guessing one of the Star Wars movies.
yodamanbro
i have seen someone ask him his favorite and he said he could not decide between a new hope and empire strikes back
King_jedi
That makes sense they are both awesome movies.
TomAngleberger
Star Wars, African Queen, Babe, Totoro, Casablanca, original Muppet Movie, PeeWee’s Big Adventure
StookyFett
??? ? ?????That’s Japanese for “I like Totoro!’
Yaddle
I like the Phantom Menace
YodaFan07
Tom, I’m writing “Flight of the Maillenium Falcon”!
It’s going to be a long story…
TomAngleberger
Sounds like it might be about 12 parsecs long…
Lord_Vader
Hehehehe That joke is spongly spongetackluler
YodaFan07
Maybe it will! 😀
StookyFett
Hey Tom, are you going to follow Star Wars, and make prequels? Also, I managed to sign in right after the SFTZ was canceled. Nosssssssssssrul!!
You do have good reasons, though.
TomAngleberger
There could be a prequel.
In some ways, Qwikpick is the prequel.
Yaddle
It’s not a prequel!
YodaFan07
So is Qwikpick 1 like The Phantom Menace?
ChewbaccasAssistant
Hey Tom! On your next tour can you please come to Denver?!
TomAngleberger
I’d love to!
anikanskyfolder123
Tom on your next tour can you come to the BarnesandNobles in ventura.
TomAngleberger
That would be cool!
anikanskyfolder123
Yah it would be cool because I live pretty close to that BarnesandNobles
anikanskyfolder123
Hi Tom can you post more things on the how to fold page
anikanskyfolder123
