Goodreads asked Jacob M. Appel:

Maureen
Maureen asked Jacob M. Appel:

I think Wedding Wipeout would make an excellent made for TV movie - any chance of that happening?

Lisa
Lisa asked Jacob M. Appel:

Having just watched the short documentary about you, I want to read some of your work. What would be the best starting point? (By the way, I really like your thoughts on being single. And your father's final thought in the documentary still has me chuckling.)

Andrada Costoiu
Andrada Costoiu asked Jacob M. Appel:

Dear Jacob, I just finished your book “The biology of luck” and I would like to thank you for writing it. Did you write a sequel? The book sent into an emotional anaphylatic shock: “Yes…and no?” What happens to Starshine, what happens to Larry? Their yours and only you can tell us.
