Description

As a bonus this year's Writers' Symposium, we’re hosting New York Times best-selling author Jay Asher in a "pre-symposium event" on July 24, Friday night at 5:00 PM. At Oakhurst’s Willow Bridge Bookstore, Jay will share his journey as a writer.

His young adult novel has garnered high praise (“A brilliant and mesmerizing debut from a gifted new writer,” said Kirkus Reviews). Jay lives over in the Santa Barbara area. Join with him and the Symposium presenters for a brief Q&A and reception at Willow Bridge Books.

Ironically, Jay Asher has worked at an independent bookstore, an outlet bookstore, a chain bookstore, and two public libraries. He hopes, someday, to work for a used bookstore. When he is not writing, Jay plays guitar and goes camping.

Thirteen Reasons Why is his first published novel.

Learn more about Jay at his website: www.thirteenreasonswhy.com. He’ll happily autograph the book your buy . . . copies will be available for sale at Willow Bridge.
