Ellen Hopkins, best known for her books "Crank," "Burned," and "Impulse," will be visiting CCSD high schools all week to speak about her books and writing career.

“With the high school students, I talk about my path to bestselling author, which was not exactly a straight line. Lots of wrong turns along the way! This includes the stories behind some of my books, most of which have threads of real life, real people, as inspiration,” said Hopkins.

All ages are welcome to her evening program on November 14; several of her books will be available for purchase and autographing.

This event is made possible thanks to a grant from Campbell County Community Public Recreation District and support from Gillette College.
