(Emma V.) Delirium Author

              The author of our book, Delirium, is Lauren Oliver. Lauren Oliver comes from a family of writers, and has always been an avid reader. Both of her parents are English professors. She attended the University of Chicago, where she majored in philosophy and literature. After she finished collage, she worked briefly as an editorial assistant. She also worked as a assistant editor. Lauren's first book published was Before I Fall.
             Lauren Oliver wrote her first novel on a black berry while commuting from her classes on the subway. The story Before I Fall, was sold in less than 48 hours. It seemed like every publisher wanted that story! People say that Lauren Oliver is a hard worker. She says that writing is compulsive for her. She says that she writes every morning, and she writes pretty much every day of the year. I think Lauren Oliver is a fantastic author!

  1. Why do you think Lauren Oliver is a fantastic author? I agree with you, but I would like to hear your reasoning. I think Lauren Oliver is good because she writes about different things than traditional authors, and that's why I like her. Great information about her becoming an author.

  2. I agree with Ryley. Why do you think she's a fantastic author? Why do you think that she writes every day/morning? Over all I really liked how you included a lot about her but not too much that it's like a biography.

  3. That is very interesting, why do you think she is so awesome? I really liked the fact that you put so much information.Although I think that all her books relate to society instead of different.

  4. I agree with Ryley and Emily. Did you search that she writes every morning? You used a lot of facts and I like the post.
