“That was a good visit,” Melissa said, taking Luke’s hand as they made their way down the driveway and headed across the street to her house. “I haven’t seen Rachel since—since Valentine’s Day, I guess. Three weeks.”
“Don’t mention Valentines’ Day,” Luke muttered. “What a horrible holiday.”
“Yeah, you’re right,” Melissa agreed wistfully. A gust of wind ruffled her hair. She leaned against Luke as they walked. “You know what? Next year let’s forget about Valentine’s Day and send each other Groundhog’s Day cards.”
Luke stopped at the bottom of the driveway and kissed her. “Groundhog’s Day cards,” he repeated. “What a romantic idea . . .”
About the Author
“Where do you get your ideas?”
That’s the question that R.L. Stine is asked most often. “I don’t know where my ideas come from,” he says. “But I do know that I have a lot more scary stories in my mind that I can’t wait to write.”
So far, he has written over a hundred mysteries and thrillers for young people, all of them bestsellers.
Bob grew up in Columbus, Ohio. Today he lives in an apartment near Central Park in New York City with his wife, Jane.
