Hey guys!  So another 2 things.....
          	
          	1. I just entered Find Your Oasis into the Wattys!!!  I'm super excited and hopeful for this book.  Really liking it so far, and feel really good about it.  Sure, it's not perfect, but I'm really pleased with it.  Hopefully it does alright!!!  (I do wish there was a long/short list this year, though, I think I might have a shot at the long list.  But as it is, just winners, probably still don't stand a chance. haha)
          	
          	2. For the first time since it's conception 5 years ago, I've changed the cover of 'Run. Just Run.'!!!  It gives it a better look, I think.  What are your thoughts???

@theadventwriter Thanks!  That's the problem though, no short list either.  So it's basically win or nothing. haha

Alright you guys, so I've got big news for you this time around!!! 
          
          1. I've entered Run Just Run into the 2019 Wattys!  It's probably not going to do very good, but I might as well try, right? 
          
          2.  (And this is the bigger news)  I'VE RELEASED ANOTHER BOOK!II've been working on this book since about December, and I haven't posted it on here yet because I was waiting for the right time, waiting to get more of the book written, just waiting.  And what better time to release the book I'm most proud of, than with a bang.  It's going straight to the Wattys. 
          
          
          Crazy, I know, but I'm entering it.  Over the next week or so, I'll release somewhere around twelve or fifteen chapters, (WHICH IS ALMOST HALF OF THE ENTIRE BOOK, SO! SURPRISE AGAIN!)
          
          
          This book, I feel good about.  This book, I'm proud of.  This book....I'm really excited about, and because I'm literally releasing it straight into the worlds largest writing competition, it's probably gonna fall flat on it's face but I'm super excited about it and I couldn't think of a more ridiculous and awesome way to release what is by far my best book yet.  So here we go, find the first couple chapters on my profile!  It's called....drumroll please.... FIND YOUR OASIS.

Heyyyyyy everyone!
          
          How's everyone doing?  Just wanted to drop in and say I'm still here, say hey to everyone, and let you all know that I'm working on a new book I'm super excited about!  I've been working on it for a couple months now, and I'm trying something different this time, trying to get a lot of the book written before I start putting it up here.  Still can't quite nail down the summary, but as soon as I do I'll give it to you guys as a little sneak peek!  Stay tuned, I'll be announcing the name of the book soon!
          
          -Jesse
