His debut middle-grade fiction book was Charlie Joe Jackson’s Guide to Not Reading, a humorous book about a reluctant reader.[1] He also wrote the lyrics for the musical John & Jen,[2] which tells the story of a woman named Jen and two men in her life named John: her brother, who dies in the Vietnam War, and her son.[3]
