Talk to Tom

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:
qp2
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!

Hello Tom,

This is not necessarily for posting to your website, and I don’t know how all these comment pages work. My son is a huge fan of your books and we are hoping to have you come visit our school this fall with your book tour. I have been communicating with Laura, but I heard she left Abrams books, and I wanted to make sure you still had us on your schedule for this fall. I recently stopped getting replays to my emails. We are hoping to do a school wide read a thon with your books as our theme… “Read and Succeed you will” (in a yoda voice)… We are very excited to have you, Just trying to confirm dates.

Thanks so much!

TomAngleberger


Hmmm… I really can’t say, since I don’t know which school you’re referring to.

If your school is near one of the towns listed on the EVENTS page, then it’s possible…

Fable_Gamer0147


Tom! I’m so glad to finally have an account. I am a huge huge huge fan! I make a stooky Luke for me to use, and I got my school into the rebellion. BTW consider Qui-Gon Pen!

TomAngleberger


I love Qui-Gon Pen! What a great name!

Diamond_Yoda

TomAngleberger


AMAZING!!!!! You submitted a photo I hope!

SF_Lou


Not yet…

SF_Skyfolder


tom if you really are ending the oy series then you should make an exclusive to superfolders or just on the website. the exclusive is origami star wars characters that are not in the books or just don’t have instrux. like mara jade, ahsoka, qui gon jinn, darth maul, count dooku, anakin skywalker,and others. i know some of the instrux have been made but offical ones by tom. posted her so tom can answer

TheUnfoldedOrigami


i agree

TheUnfoldedOrigami


but i think most of us prefer another book

SF_Skyfolder


that is why i said if you are really ending the series

TMac13


tottly

TomAngleberger


I’ve posted many exclusive instrux here and I hopefully will do many more!

jedijoey


So, for the showcase, is that a rabbit? And we fold our own version of it?

jedijoey


And tell Cece that it seems really stooktactular!

TomAngleberger


Yes!

Kitfistofan


None of my stuff is on here yet why? Tom or Sam

TomAngleberger


It takes awhile, There is a huge queue!

BatMan_Returns


Is it true you have kids?!

TheUnfoldedOrigami


Idk if Tom will answer that BatMan

BatMan_Returns

TomAngleberger


I do have a baby rancor…. but he bites so be careful!

0_Yoda

Gus_Grissom


Hey Tom, can you visit indiana again? Last time you came, I was not able to go. Oh, and by the way, why are you ending the origami yoda series? What will become of this website in a few years?

Gus_Grissom


I had an idea for the next book, the star: foldy wan

TheUnfoldedOrigami


what will happen to this amazing place and all its amazing people

TomAngleberger


There are a bunch of reasons for stopping…. but mostly, this is the end of the story I wanted to tell.

If I ever get an idea for a new story about Dwight or Origami Star Wars stuff, I might write some more…

The Website should keep going!

Bobafettfan5


Will the new movies inspire a new Origami yoda story?

SFMichael


First: Are you ever gonna come to delaware?

Second: Why did my monkey throw my taco in the dumpster

Third: You hate monopoly? I LOVE IT

I love it when i own so much stuff and I’m rich, and others are very poor >:D

MUAHAHAHHA

Once i was playing and my grandma had $1 XD

Gus_Grissom


I stink at monopoly. I always lose. πŸ™

TomAngleberger


Hopefully

It smelled bad

I bet your grandma hates it, too

TomAngleberger

Gus_Grissom


Why can’t we write custom comments on people’s stuff anymore? I can’t use my signature phrase: “Nice”

TomAngleberger


Because instead of “nice” people were writing: “this is ugly and so are you”

nickthefolder
