About

Hi! I'm Jill Morris.

I live in Brooklyn.

I am a contributing writer for The Onion.

I write sketches for UCB on my Maude Team GORILLA GORILLA.

I am working with best-selling author Todd Gallagher on his new book Todd Vs. High School.

I am a terrible driver.

Do you like books and Facebook? Prove It and Join Todd Gallagher's Fan Page

While Todd is still researching about high school as a high school student, I’ve been put in charge of the most high school thing of all: Facebook.

I made the author I’m working with a Facebook fan page. It will give updates on his new book/blog/documentary Todd Vs. High School. This is Todd Gallagher’s second book after Random House’s best-selling Andy Roddick Beat Me With A Frying Pan.

I’m also helping manage the Todd Vs. High School blog and doing research for the actual book, so it’d be neat to see this actually get a following since I’m so involved with it.

Overall, Trinity Christian High School is going well enough for Todd, but he’s super over-worked. But, hey, I’m sure some Facebook fans would give him the energy to keep studying! I’m rooting for him to get higher than a 1.7 GPA this time.

Please follow the Tumblr for the book I’m working on! I just reblogged myself. Is that socially acceptable?

I’m currently working with an ESPN writer on a book called Todd VS. High School. He went back to high school today. He’s 33. He also wrote the best-selling book Andy Roddick Beat Me With A Frying Pan.

We’re going to be updating it regularly with footage from the documentary they are filming about it and other fun things.

Thanks to Ben Ragheb and Matt Mayer for the website design!

It’s my dad’s birthday on the 27th. I need to get him a gift. Should I order Taste Stick from Yu Wan Mei Amalgamated Salvage Fisheries and Polymer Injection Group or a different satisfactory product, like Metal Fun?

Taking Questions for New Book

Hi! The author I am working with is now working on a new book where he goes back to high school (a la Billy Madison) and is looking for questions you would like answered about high school. Do you have any questions? If so, they would be printed in the new book with your name. Thanks!

Here’s some examples:

“What percentage of the time that a teacher lets you watch a movie in class has to do with them being hungover, not having completed a lesson plan, or having a personal problem they’re dealing with?”

“Why do cool kids now dress like 80s nerds?”

“What’s the best way to have kids think you’re cool without making a huge effort?”
