John Green

John Green is one of most popular authors among teenagers in the 21st century. He is also one of the most respected and well-known internet personalities out there. He and his brother, Hank Green, run the YouTube channel 'The VlogBrothers' with over two million subscribers and are the creators of the online video conference VidCon. Green is the author of Looking for Alaska, Paper Towns, An Abundance of Katherines, The Fault in Our Stars, Will Grayson Will Grayson (co-written with David Levithan), and Let It Snow (co-written with Maureen Johnson and Lauren Myracle). Both Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines are recipients of the Michael L. Printz Award. The Fault in Our Stars was adapted into a movie, released in 2014, and the Paper Towns film is set to be released this summer.

I am a huge fan of John Green. I have read almost all of his books and cannot wait for the July movie release of Paper Towns. Here's the trailer if you haven't seen it:

If that isn't one of the most beautiful things you have ever seen then I don't know what is.

Green's writing has influenced me and my writing in incredible ways. He was the first contemporary author I read, which helped me with improving my contemporary writing. He also incorporates so much humor into his books so effortlessly, which influenced me to have some of my own woven into my stories. Even though I am still growing as a writer, John Green has helped me learn new techniques to draw readers in just by reading his work.

Now, I spend my days anxiously waiting for the day John Green comes out with a new novel.

PS- there is a glitch on my post on Dystopian Literature. The spacing is all off for the first half of the post, I don't know what's up with it. Sorry:/
