Grayslake Central High School Writers Week

Famous writers, such as Jay Asher, Jay Bonansinga, Sam Weller and any more have come in and talked to the students of Grayslake Central High School.

This week at Grayslake Central High School famous writers have come in and talked to the students about how they got where they are now and some of their works. Jay Asher the writer of 13 Reasons Why, a New York bestseller, was the first author I saw and was extremely inspirational to prospective writers. I also went to Jay Bonansinga, the author of the Walking Dead novels, small group discussions where he talked about the different medans of the Walking Dead series. He is also a professor that teaches creative writing that discssed how to finish writing a story. Along with these, the lead singer and lead guitarist of Company of Thieves talked about the writing processes of a song. These writers and many more were a great inspiration to the young authors at Grayslake Central High School.
