When I call Avi for our second phone conversation I say hi and then start with an all-important question: “So what did you think of the first episode?” (And yes because he’s Avi he got to see the whole episode laid out with graphics a week before it went into the magazine lucky him!)

“I think it’s really cool” Avi says. “I really like it.”

Well that was good to hear because we’re moving right along ready to share more of Avi and his story with you our dear readers.

“So Avi” I say. “Your next episode is scheduled for the back-to-school issue. I’m sure as a 14-year-old boy you have a lot to say about that.”
