Jay Asher is the author of Thirteen reasons why. He released it in October 2007 and it spoke to million of people. Thirteen reason's why was inspired through high school because his cousin who was a junior in high school attempted suicide, and stories he had experienced and heard from his wife and other female friends. The idea of the audiotapes came from when he did and audio guided tour in Vegas. Clay's reactions were based on high school experiences.It was easy to create Hannah but a little harder to create Clay. He wanted to make it known that this happens everywhere. He wanted to show that things do have a ripple affect.
