I apologize this is not a question, but after reading your book I just have to thank you. I am a college student, a broke one at that when I bought your book. I just wanted to acknowledge like many others the dedication it took to write this book and also the courage you had to have on making this your second book. I just wanted to say thank you for sharing this wonderful story with the world. Are you writing another?
Jeff Hobbs
Hi--thank you so much for this kind message. It means a lot that you would read and respond to Rob's story, and then reach out so thoughtfully. It really does. And I'm sorry for the years-long delay in responding to this--I really don't spend time on social websites but am trying to be better as my next book, Show Them You're Good, comes out in August. It's about young men finishing high school in different neighborhoods and aspiring for college. I wish you all the best on your journey, sincerely, Jeff

Hi, I just wanted to say that The Short and Tragic Life of Robert Peace is one of the best books I have ever read. I was also wondering, how your opinion changed much of Rob since writing this? How does it compare knowing his whole life story vs previous perceptions of him as an old friend and former roommate who seemed to keep much of his internal struggles and history to himself?
