About Me

Ronald 'Cheesie' Mack
Me

Hi!

Everyone calls me Cheesie, but my real name is Ronald A. Mack. The A is for Apton, which is a weird middle name. It’s my mother’s maiden name. I think most kids HATE their middle names. I actually don’t. R. Apton Mack is actually kind of cool sounding…but I like Cheesie best.

Here’s some stuff about me:

  1. I have brown hair, brown eyes, and three freckles on my nose. I also have a whitish scar on my thumb where a fishhook stabbed me when I was on a lake with my dad. I was eight and fooling around. Don’t ask.
  2. My birthday is August 16. I’m now 11, which is, IMO, a very cool age to be.
  3. My ears stick out. But you can probably see that in my picture above. It used to bother me, but now that I’ve written about my ears in my book, a zagillion (that’s a gazillion times bigger than a gazillion) people know, so I say…so what? And this is the last time I’m going to mention them on my website!
  4. I have three grandparents (plus one who died a long time ago), two aunts, two uncles, and two first cousins. I also have the meanest older sister in Massachusetts. Cheesie's Family TreeMaybe the United States. Maybe the world! Those tiny boxes and circles to the right are my family tree (which I made as a school assignment in fourth grade). Click on it to see it bigger and learn more about everyone in my family.
  5. I am a very fast runner. One of the fastest in my class, but I haven’t actually raced every kid. I’m on the sixth grade cross country team.
  6. I like sports. Especially baseball and soccer. And I’m a good swimmer.
  7. I read lots of books. Especially adventures.
  8. I love to write about my adventures.
  9. I love words.
  10. And I like making lists…like this one.

  2. Hey Cheesie,

    Who is your favorite soccer player? Mine is David Beckham. How long have you been playing, and what is your position?

    Have a great day,
    Patrick

    1. I don’t have a favorite player because i don’t watch very much soccer. I like playing a lot. I am almost always a forward because I am wicked fast.

    Thanks!

    1. When are you coming to Eagle Point, I’m dying to see you! (I know that Steve Colter is coming, but am clueless about if your Coming)

      P.S: My real name is……………………(dots for dramatic effect) is not yet revealed!

  7. We finished the book it was good. It was funny when goon had to pull down her pants everyone laughed

  8. I’m read your book a (short) while ago. So far, so funny! I got stuck on the coin thing. Where are you selling your books? I’m here at California (The book I’m reading is a library version). How much will it be?

    Questions:
    1a. Where will you sell your book?
    1b. How much is it? $$$
    2a. Who are your friends? Other than Georgie.(’cause I hadn’t finished the book)
    2b. Enemies? Other than Goon/June

    1. Answers:
      1a. Since my books are published by Random House, a big NY publisher, they are for sale almost everywhere. Even online and on Kindles, iPads, etc.
      1b. The list price is $15.99 hardcover, but the paperback comes out in May and will be cheaper.
      2a. Glenn Philips. I have other friends, but not other best friends. But things could change.
      2b. Kevin Welch. (Wait until you read Book #2…Cheesie Mack Is Cool in a Duel.)

      You are a listmaker, like me! I bet you are very organized.

    1. It’s easy for me to write about Georgie. I know him better than anyone else in the world. How could I write about you? I don’t even know who you are.

  9. My teacher told me to ask my principal Dexter,Martin can he get in touch with you to ask him and you could you come to my school.So could you please get in touch with my principal Dexter,Martin please do it, please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  10. My teacher got the the message you sent to her and she let me read and red it to the class but does that mean your coming to my school if your going to flordia write my teacher and tell her the answer if you do come to my school tell her the time and the date

  11. so wat grade are you in do oyu have a htc which is a big phone bigger then your hand and you have got to send me the recipe for the snadwitch it looks good my mom makes her famous sandwitch it has bacon wait i cant tell you its a secret so your book was and still be great it feels like i’m with them spying and i dont wont to stop next thing i know its 12 o’clock and got to go to bed

    1. Now in 6th.
      I do not have a cell phone yet.
      Here’s my BLART recipe: Bacon, Lettuce, Avocado, Ranch dressing, Tomato…two slices of toast. You decide how much of each. I like mine with a lot of ranch dressing, so it’s really messy.

    1. I have no idea. She wasn’t invited. She probably hung out with her own friends somewhere.

    1. I have never had a pet frog. They must be fun to watch. But I bet you’re going to hate me when I tell you I have eaten frog legs.

  12. I like to write books, read books, and make neat lists, too! I kind of want to meet you in person. But of course, I doubt that would happen, or is even possible.

    1. Maybe I could come to your school. I visit lots of schools across the country. I was just in Oklahoma. You could ask a teacher or principal to contact me.

  13. I met Steve Cotler and he autographed my book! I read the book and loved it! Your favorite color is orange right? Do you like other colors? And,(ha ha)do you have a girlfriend?

    (P. S. Don,t get mad at me for the third question).

    1. Yep, my fave color is Orange. And NO, I do not have a girlfriend, and I don’t want one right now. (Maybe someday…)
