    As you may or may not know, I turned twenty-five the other day. Instead of gifts this year, I'm asking everyone to join my Email List on www. jjhebert. net. Unconventional, my newest novel, will be published by Mindstir Media later this year, and joining the Email List will ensure that you receive updates regarding my book release, contests, giveaways, and more.

    There was nothing better than spending my down time during a very busy Thanksgiving week revisiting DCF :) It was just as great of a read the 2nd time around as the first!

    Thought you would be interested to know: I saw someone with Loosing my Faculties in hand the other day....(so obviously told him that you have other books out in the world he should read as well) Apparently you are required reading for a class at Salem State.... I don't know if you are impressed by that.... but I am.

    I'm right with ya on the Coldplay thing. They said in a Rolling Stone article that their latest release was their "last chance to hit the big time". I assumed it was supposed to be a little tongue-in-cheek, but my boyfriend says they were serious about it. Weirdos.

    Yeah things here in Florida are pretty chill.
    Hopefully you'll be able to de-stress and take swim in our green and brown water.
    Okay, that part isn't so great.
    What part of Florida will you be in?

    Take a day off.
    Kick up your feet and read a good book.
    I would recommend one, but the good ones I've read lately have been written by you.
