Hi, thank you for reaching out, it means a lot. 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. Everyone is doing well, working, raising families, carrying on, wondering what Rob might be doing were he still with us (yesterday was his birthday--he would have been 40). He is no longer in prison. Sincerely, Jeff

Found 'Peace' at a bookstore in Berkeley, my alma mater, and could not put it down! I too worked at the univ cafeteria, a poor minority among peers with money and two-parent homes. You capture this, and the deep love of a parent and child who've struggled together, so well. Thank you. My questions: Do you think Rob would be alive if Carl hadn't stolen? Was Jackie aware of this thievery? Has Jackie been able to travel?

Jeff, First off, let me say that your book literally made my top 10 (maybe top 1) list of all time. I love the way you write and truly felt like I was there with you during the story. I have thought often of contacting you with a book idea (which you probably receive all of the time)! Is there a good way to contact you about this? Thanks again for such a powerful book. Stacy
