I had meant to post this sooner!
Thank you kindly to Saddleback Publishing for sending me copies of CLAN CASTLES!
The best part is I am about to start work on the sequel.
Yes, that is right, Jake and Kyle go on even more adventures.
Also working on a new book for Saddleback's Gravel Road series.
Once again, I am honored that Saddleback Publishing puts so much faith me.
Here's to a great 2015!
Best,

Here is the cover for my newest book VARSITY 170 from Saddleback Publishing.
This book looks at loss from the perspective of a high school senior who has the whole world in front of him.
Saddleback did an AWESOME job with this. As always.
It comes out in May! More to come!

With Halloween just around the corner this post seemed fitting.
It appears that my most recent book from Saddleback Publishing is out.
Zombies is the tale of a boy who cries zombie one too many times and ends up paying the price!
Saddleback recently sent me some copies of the book. They did an EXCELLENT job as always with it.
Best,
Evan Jacobs
This is the cover for the next title being released via Ronni’s Books!
It is called MOTHCATCHER AND HALLOWEEN COSTUME. It is about two high school students on the fringes of the social scale. They get invited to the coolest Halloween party of the year and that’s when their troubles really start.
Many thanks to Brian Balchack for making this cover. Also, many thanks to him and Mike Troolines for inspiring the idea for this book in the first place!
Thank you for your time,
Evan Jacobs
Saddleback Publishing recently sent over the cover for a children's book I did for them. Titled ZOMBIES, I cannot tell you how excited I am about this book!
It is filled with action, gore and all the spooky stuff I loved (and still love) to read.
ZOMBIES is about a young boy whose lying ways get him in some big trouble!
I always longed to write books like this. I am so appreciative that Saddleback has allowed me to do it on a bigger scale.
Best,
Evan Jacobs
Saddleback Publishing recently sent me copies of two shorter books I wrote for them.
One is called Include Me. It was written from the perspective of students with Special Needs. It tries to dispel some myths and shed insight into that important population of students.
The other is called iYou. It looks at how technology is changing and shaping our world. In my mind it was meant to be a very lite version of Bill Gates' The Road Ahead.
Thank you again for visiting!

I was recently contracted by Saddleback Publishing to write a 5000 word book for a new line of titles they are doing.
As I set about writing out the outline for the agreed upon topic, they asked me if I could help them write another 5000 word book for which they only had an idea.
As a fan of Roger Corman (and RL Stine) and the old movie studios that used to just come to quickie filmmakers with posters and tell said filmmaker to make a movie based on that, I eagerly accepted the task.
Now, it's back to work on the original outline as well as an outline for another possible book in their Gravel Road series. This book will delve a little bit into the world of punk rock.
Thanks for reading!

My new YA book for Saddleback Publishing's Gravel Road series is done!
I literally just turned in the first draft of SENIOR YEAR to them. We recently spoke and it looks like I am going to write even more books for them.
I feel lucky and honored to be in this position.
Thank you for visiting this page! Please continue!

This is the cover for my next book that is going to be released by Saddleback Publishing on 4/30/2014.
I will post more of a description as soon as they give me one. Lets just say that it is about a young adult who makes a bad decision and this impacts the rest of his life.
You can find out more information about it here.
ATTACK OF THE DRONE is done! It now available from Amazon in hardcopy and Kindle! You can check out the cover above.
Just turned another short book to the great folks at Saddleback Publishing! In addition to that, I am going to be doing a new book for their Gravel Road series. It is going to be a young adult fiction book about loss. I am tweaking the outline and then I will start writing it.
THE MOTHCATCHER AND HALLOWEEN COSTUME continues to get chipped away at. It is starting to find its way to being on a regular schedule which means it will be done sooner rather than later.
Lastly, my friend Kevin Lindenmuth and I are currently teaming up on a book! I will talk more about that when I am able.
See you soon!
Evan Jacobs
