He wrote some pretty fantastic books called Looking for Alaska, An Abundance of Katherines, and Paper Towns. I love all three books and the characters in them dearly.
John Green inspires me as a writer and as a person. He makes me want to write great books, go great places, and do great things when I read his work or watch him travel on YouTube or hear about him donating to charity.
When I look at this picture on the left, it never ceases to amaze me that that little tiny man grew up to be a person I want to be. You know. Minus the penis.
I told him that. That I wanted to be exactly what he was. He called me awesome. Which basically made my life about a thousand times over. I told him that he restored my faith in humanity. He laughed and signed my book and told me that Nerdfighters did the same thing for him, so I technically did the same thing for him. Again, this statement made my life a thousand times over.
On YouTube, John and his brother Hank have a channel. Search 'vlogbrothers'
