Thank you Great Adams and AHS!

THE UNDERDOGS and GRAND SLAM have arrived!

On November 18, Anna High School in Texas spent basically the entire day reading my book VARSITY 170 in all of their classes. I will be getting pictures from the event soon (as well as newspaper clippings) and I will post those as well. According to Greta Adams, the AHS Librarian who co-ordinated it all, the event was a success! I am honored and humbled and I hope to do many more things with AHS.

Here is a listing of what they did that day…

Also, as you can see above, I received my copies of GRAND SLAM and THE UNDERDOGS.

I cannot tell you how excited I am for people to read these books. I owe Saddleback Publishing a debt of gratitude because they made all of this great stuff possible. It was always a dream to write young adult fiction and connect with an audience. THANK YOU, SADDLEBACK!

New Series and a Gravel Road Book!

Recently signed 2 contracts with Saddleback Publishing for a new series as well as a new book in their Gravel Road series. To say that I am excited would be an understatement. I just want to make these projects the best that they can be.

I should be getting copies of THE EMOJI OF DOOM, GRAND SLAM and THE UNDERDOGS soon. 

Thank you for checking in!

The Underdogs!

I am so excited about this one coming from the great folks at Saddleback Publishing!! 

The Underdogs!!

It is about a girl's football team. Ultimately, it is about not letting anything stand in the way of doing what you want to do.

I LOVE the cover.

Screaming Quietly Makes CNN!


Saddleback Publishing recently sent me this. It is from an article on CNN regarding Hilary Clinton and what she plans to do for people who have special needs.

Here is the article:

http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/10/opinions/perry-autism-hillary-clinton-plan/index.html

It also features a list of books that contain people with Autism in fiction. Screaming Quietly is at slide 14!

I am amazed, humbled and honored that the book was included. Much thanks to Darren and Amy Cohen for getting me involved working with people who have special needs and Saddleback Publishing for believing in me.

L’Chaim!

Clan Castles 2!



Hello!

I just got the cover for CLAN CASTLES 2: UPGRADE PACK from Saddleback Publishing. I am so excited about this!!

Currently, I am writing a new series for them and working on a new book for the White Lightning series.

In addition to this, Saddleback and I are also talking about another series after this based on a character from CLAN CASTLES 2.

I am also outlining another White Lightning idea that I plan to pitch to them.

Again, I am honored to be able to do this type of writing for such a great and important company.

Best,

Evan Jacobs

Hello!

Above you can see that the promo copies for
QWIK CUTTER and SCRATCH N’ SNITCH (from Saddleback Publishing's White Lightning division) have arrived.

While aimed at Middle School readers these books should provide a lot of enjoyment for people of all ages.

Here is the cover for a new zombie book titled THE DEAD DON’T DIE that I wrote with my friend Kevin Lindenmuth…




Very excited about this as it is quite different from many of the other things I’ve written.
