The author of my book that I am reading right now is Stephen Chbosky.
Stephen Chbosky was born on January 25, 1970, and lived in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He received his Bachelor of the Fine Arts degree from the University of Southern California’s film writing program in 1992. He is a screenwriter, television writer, and stage writer.
When the book was such a great success, he decided to make it into a movie and directed it himself.
In an interview, Stephen stated, "I knew from the beginning. Making this movie was a lifelong dream of mine. I don't really know why I was compelled to write my first novel twice except that the images in some of the scenes, they continued to be present in my life and I just felt that it was the right thing to do the movie."
Stephen loves writing and loves the life of movies! He hopes to one day make another movie based on a book he will write.
I love how you shared the history of the author and his success with the book, but what does the author do with his literature that made you want to read perks of being a wallflower.

ReplyDeleteYou did a good job explaining bits of the author's life and success :). Have you finished reading this book yet? If you have do you think you'll want to see the movie? You should tell us what you thought of the book once you're done.
