Could you please consider going to the National English Teachers Convention in November? (I know, it’s in Vegas this year, and that isn’t always a draw for people, but there’s a great airport and I hear there are some good buffets….and Cirque, there’s always that…)

My students turned me on to your books and I think all English teachers need to hear you speak about them (especially the Fault in our Stars).

Thank you for writing about smart, acerbic, witty, real teenagers.

Mr. John Green,

“The Fault in Our Stars” is now the second book of yours that I have read (and LOVED). Because I teach seventh grade language arts, I cannot readily recommend some of your books due to a small handful of reasons; maturity level of some of my students, ability level, and content.

Having said that, I have some students who are mature enough to read your work. To these students, I incessently recommend your novels because of how talented a writer you are (I’m assuming a less self-centered, condescending Van Houten). You have a way, in both “Looking for Alaska” and “The Fault in Our Stars”, of telling a story so beautifully. The characters are extremely relatable and lovable in their own unique ways.

I’m sure you are told this quite frequently, but I will say it still: you are a truly talented author. I look forward to reading your other novels.

With much respect and admiration,
Chrissy Somers

Could you please come to Roanoke, or just VA in general? There are some nerdfighters here who would love to meet you, and my friend and I are big fans of your books!

You should come to the Starfest Convention being held in Colorado, April 20-22… It is a huge sci-fi- fantasy convention that is a lot of fun… and I’m sure a lot of Nerdfighters will be there. (:

Jasmine March 1, 2012 at 5:56 pm

You definitely should come to Michigan for a book signing or something! It would be seriously perfect.

Sammie Kurty March 2, 2012 at 12:41 am

I could die happy if I had the opportunity to meet you. Is Pittsburgh, PA an option for your tour? Maybe Orlando? (I am going to college nearby. You could go to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Woot!)
Please and thank you!
DFTBA

John, you and Hank should come to Denver! There are so many cool Nerdfighters here who would love to meet you guys. Maybe for your next book?

I was so sad that I missed this tour, and I want to get to see you.

Milia March 8, 2012 at 7:34 pm

Is there any chance you can come to Melbourne?
You’ll make so many nerdfighters do their happy dance.
We have trams and koalas and we have a catholic all-girls school named St. Aloysius’ College that is celebrating it’s 125 years this year and we think you should really come.

I would die if you came to Florida, any part of Florida, and I can come! A book signing and other nerdfightery things. You are my favourite author :)
PLEASE CONSIDER!

Monica March 18, 2012 at 1:22 am

It would be really nice to have some sort of book signing in Fairview Heights, IL. Maybe at the Barnes and Noble or something?

Reply

Meagan March 18, 2012 at 11:41 am

I would LOVE if you came to the St. Louis, MO area. My friends and I would legit die. I wouldn’t even know what to say to you. I would get my copy of TFiOS double-signed. Such a fab writer, you are.

Maria Garcia March 19, 2012 at 1:48 pm

Please come somewhere close to the Caribbean! I live in Curacao and hope someday to meet you. While the idea of you ever coming to Curacao seems pretty impossible, maybe you’ll do a book signing somewhere close. The day you sign my copy of The Fault In Our Stars will be the day my life would be made.

Judy March 23, 2012 at 3:19 pm

John, are you going to be speaking anywhere in Houston when you are at TLA? I have a student who would love to meet you.

Lorena March 29, 2012 at 9:13 am

Do you have any intention of coming to South Korea?

Jess March 29, 2012 at 10:47 pm

As a new Nerdfighter, though longtime Nermiarmy/Charlie McDonnell lover, I would love to meet you and/or Hank. Now, obviously, I will be a Nerdfighter from now until the day I die, so I have time, but I live near Boston, and would love to know if there is any plan for having a Nerdfighter Gathering nearish to Boston.

Also, I have FINALLY ordered TFiOS, and I can’t wait to read it :)

Okay, that’s all. DFTBA :)

Erin March 30, 2012 at 8:24 pm

Please come to Columbia, SC or Charleston, SC. There are a lot of nerdfighters here and we would love for you to come here. Thanks so much for being awesome! Please come if you can.

I first picked up Looking for Alaska two years ago and fell completely in love. Now I have read all of your books, and got all of my friends addicted also. Because of you i decided to start writing. My friend Sarah and I are just about to finish our first book, Insane Love. I hope you come back to Birmingham sometime soon. Thank you so much, and can’t wait to see what you come up with next!

When are you next coming to the Midwest area?

Reply

Emma April 11, 2012 at 6:12 pm

I’m a high school student and I have recently discovered your books and videos and I have to say, I’m kind of obsessed. I haven’t really enjoyed much young adult fiction lately, but after reading An Abundance of Katherines, Looking for Alaska and Paper Towns I was incredibly impressed. I am also currently reading The Fault in our Stars and Will Grayson, Will Grayson and they are also amazing! The plot lines are funny and creative and light hearted at parts but yet deep and thought-provoking and others and it’s a perfect balance. Keep up the awesome work!

You should definitely come to Michigan. (Funny how nobody’s said come to Michigan yet). I’d absolutely be the happiest person on Earth if I got my copy of Looking for Alaska signed.

Reply

Nicholas April 17, 2012 at 6:11 pm

I recently discovered your works (from vlog brothers to nerd fighters to books) and I cannot wait until you come through Atlanta. I could not miss it.

Kylie April 18, 2012 at 6:43 pm

I was wondering if you would be coming to Ohio any time soon? It would seriously be so awesome. I just started reading your books and you are no doubt my new favorite author. I finished Looking for Alaska in one day. :)

Veronica May 14, 2012 at 5:52 pm

I second the motion for Ohio.

Alex April 22, 2012 at 2:22 am

There is a great little town on Vancouver island called Sidney that I think everybody needs to visit sometime in their lives. I also happen to live there and know many people who would love to here you speak… (including me!) so add it to your list of places, please!! Youll love lovely Sidney by the sea, (were also known as the book town since we have about 7 bookstores so it’s a AWESOME place for an author!)

Tori Utzler May 2, 2012 at 12:32 pm

You both should definitely come to Medina, OH. Preferably MHS for there harbors two very passionate nerdfighters! My friend Lindsay and I are huge fans of vlog brothers and the books and it kind of fugging sucks that you aren’t coming here. Also in on of your books (can’t remember which one right now.) Chapter Nineteen in written as ‘ninteen’
I’m pretty sure it’s Will Grayson, Will Grayson.

Celine May 5, 2012 at 1:34 pm

Dear Vlogbrothers,
I don’t want to waste your time, so I shall make my message epigrammatic. Your book signing team (Hank and John and your hands and your sharpies and awesome) should highly consider touring to Minnesota. As a Minnesotan, I know form experience that Minnesota could very well have won the contest for Most Boringest State in the history of…history, so naturally we have nothing to do except read books and shovel snow. Please come to Minnesota and make our lives less sucky.
Thanks, Celine (by the way, you should come to the 5th congressional district area for best outcome)

Hannah May 6, 2012 at 11:21 am

I just want to ask without it sounding pushy:
Could you please come to Florida? Preferably Tampa? I would be elated to meet you, because it is always a pleasure to meet someone’s hero.

John,
I am a Sophomore in high school and have known for much of my life that all I want to do is write. In early 2011, just before my discovery of Nerdfighteria, I was beginning to doubt myself. I was in the mindset of “I am fifteen and have yet to publish my first book! Clearly I will never succeed,” and my confidence began on a downward spiral. I then proceeded to discover vlogbrothers and immediately pre-ordered TFiOS. It is almost needless to say that you changed my life entirely. Your books inspired me to keep writing (and reading, for that matter), and your videos inspired me in every other part of my life. When my school librarian told me she had met you, I quite nearly had a meltdown (there goes whatever front of sanity I was successfully upholding until that point). You don’t know me, but I feel like you must because we are best friends, you and I. I hope desperately to meet you one day so I can tell you in person what a vital role you have played in shaping my personality as is.
If you would ever consider coming to Cleveland (or, for that matter, anywhere within a two-hour radius of Cleveland), I know somewhere near 6238473293784 people whose lives you would make. Just think about it…

DFTBA

Emily May 16, 2012 at 1:11 am

Is there anyway you would come to Utah? I’ve read every single one of your books and would love to meet you. Your books changed my life. You probably get that a lot, but I am not joking at all.

Thanks.
