"Hi Sean,
It was a pleasure meeting you today! I really enjoyed your presentation at Camp Apples.
I am so inspired by you and your program, and I am excited to try some of your ideas. I will not be in a setting to be able to implement a boot camp modeled after your plan, but I am trying to think of ways I can implement a similar idea for my 7th grade Writing class. I am also thinking of ways I can try some of your ideas during my reading intervention groups at the primary level.
Thank-you again for sharing all of your wonderful ideas and knowledge! I am going to enjoy reading and using your information, and following your blog!"
