Jason Brooks, Professional Storyteller

One of the first writers on this site was Jason Brooks, back when the Sun was known as Snellville Local News. Jason ran Grayson Local News, and both were intended to be, well, local news. But as Jason says, “I suck at being a news reporter. I have too much life getting in the way to stay on top of things like a hard news reporter should.”

So both sites became community blogs, and Jason is publisher of what’s now Grayson Local. He’s also author of four books, including the newly-released Just Pretend You’re Dead (And Other Parenting Insights). His writing is both funny and honest — Just Pretend holds nothing back. I’ll be reviewing it for you here soon but today I just want you to meet one of our co-founders. Jason worked ridiculous hours to build this site and bring readers like you here. Thank him by buying one or all of his books.
