When I was a kid, one of my friends was best internet buddies with Tammy Pierce, and beta-read her books. She got her to come to our school and talk to the class about writing.
I did read her books, though they weren't entirely my cuppa. She is totally cool as a person, though, especially when you're 12 and it's way cool to have grown-ups befriend you at all. :)
