The novel follows two boys who both have the same names Will Grayson. After this decision, they separately wrote the first three chapters for their half and then shared them with each other.Īfter sharing, they then "knew immediately it was going to work", as stated by Levithan. The only plot they decided on together was the fact that the two characters would meet at some point in the novel and that their meeting would have a tremendous effect on their lives. This also held true for the main characters' names, with Levithan choosing the given name and Green the surname. John Green wrote all the odd-numbered chapters (capitalized Will Grayson) while David Levithan wrote all the even-numbered chapters (lower case will grayson). In designing the plot for the book, the two authors decided to split it evenly in half. The book's narrative is divided evenly between two boys named Will Grayson, with Green having written all of the chapters for one, and Levithan having written the chapters for the other which is presented in an alternating chapter fashion. The novel debuted on the New York Times children's best-seller list after its release and remained there for three weeks. Will Grayson, Will Grayson is a novel by John Green and David Levithan, published in April 2010 by Dutton Juvenile.
