'It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out of your door,' he used to say. 'You step into the Road, and if you don't keep your feet, there is no knowing where you might be swept off to.”

Paris. I'm jealous, I always wanted to visit. Maybe one day. LOL. Yes, I been in very good mood lately. Think writing and reading helps :) I can't wait to read it as well. I still got no idea how long it be, my book. Guess we see. LOL.
Awesome! So good to hear! I just attended a wedding in Paris, it was awesome :) And of course I released Water & Storm Country and I'm so excited about the reviews!! Now I just have to finish writing The Earth Dwellers when I can find some time ;)Keep up the good work!
Hey!Been a while. Work been insane lately, my kids walk now so they are everywhere. LOL. Plus I been writing a lot on weekend. My book up to 17 chapters, 100 pages now. But I am doing great. Hope you having good weekend
~J.
Hi All!!I have a HUGE favor to ask of anyone who has read or is planning to read any of my books. That is to post a review on Amazon.com for EVERY one of my books that you've read, and for EVERY one of my books that you read in the future. You can do this even if you purchased the book(s) elsewhere or received a copy for free from me.
This might seem like a small thing, but it is ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL for my career and getting the word out. I sell the vast majority of my books on Amazon, and the more reviews I get there, the more likely Amazon is to recommend it to their accountholders.
Even if your review is as short as "I liked it." "I loved it." or "I hated it." that still helps me so much. Or you can just post your reviews from Goodreads if you wrote one here. And please remember that if you didn't purchase the book from Amazon or you got a copy free from me, note that at either the top of the bottom of your review.
Thank you thank you thank you soooo much for doing me this huge favor, your friendship and support mean the world to me and I get teary-eyed just thinking about all each and every one of you have done for me!
All the best and keep on being the awesome people you are,
David Estes
Aww thanks!! I'm sure we'll have lots of fun discussing dystopian books then! No pressure on reading my books, only if they look interesting to you :) I only friended you because we like similar books!
Thanks very much for your friend request. I do love dystopian books so joining the group was a bit of a no-brainer! I've had a look at the books you have published and they are definitely my kind of thing so hopefully I'll be reading them soon!
Eep! Lol, not soon enough for me, I'm so excited to get it out there! It comes out June 6th ;) Thanks for all your amazing support!!
My kids has gone insane lately. LOL. Yest. 8 hours of constant crying, screaming. I was glad it was Friday. LOL. Ohh yay, I'm excited :) On plus side, I been hanging out, talking with my ex lately(Dated when 15) We not sure where it going yet, we just friends, for now. But it's keeping me from being as upset about my friend.
I had almost no time to write but plan on today, though I am sick. Plans for weekend?
Ugh! So sorry to hear that! And sorry work has been so crazy, I've been really busy too, as always ;) But things are great since my new book comes out soon yay!!
David,Hey! Been a long time, I know. There some things that happened in past month. The best friend living with me? We no longer friends(Long story, if you message, tell you more) So been dealing with that. Plus work been even more insane lately. I hope everything is well with you.
Have good weekend.
~J.
Aw thank you! Lol, I wish more guys would read and write YA, but in proud to be one of them! No pressure to read my books though, I just want to be your friend because we like similar books :) If you do decide to read one , I'd recommend either

(my highest rated and personal favorite). Hope you have a nice weekend too!
I know! And you're probably my second or third male friend in GR ^^ not to mention you're an author. That's amazing. I'd love to read some of your work in the future.Have a great weekend (:
