Jessica, I've been wanting to tell you how much I loved your book. I started it the day your Mom gave it to me and finished it the next afternoon as soon as I got home from school. It was everything and more than I expected. It was funny, sad, touching, insightful............I could go on and on. I loved it!! I can't tell you how vicariously proud (not sure that's the right terminology) I am of you for self publishing and promoting your book. It's been a long haul, but you never gave up. You deserve the very best and I truly believe this is only the first in a long line of wonderfully funny and crazy good Jessica Martin books.
See you at Esther's this weekend! Much love, Becky Joseph
Jessica Martin grew up on her family’s farm in Brockport, New York. She spent her formative years talking to herself in the mirror and memorizing lines from Full House episodes. She graduated from Syracuse University with a degree in Television, Radio and Film and that proved to be worthwhile in that she still enjoys all of those things. After living in San Francisco, New York, and Boston, Jessica has learned the importance of light layers, irony, and remembering how people take their coffee.
A fortune cookie once told her that she finds beauty in ordinary things, and she liked this. But then another fortune cookie told her that she liked horse racing and gambling, but not to excess, so she’s not entirely sure what to believe. She sort of thinks fortune cookies should stop pretending they know her so well.
Open-Eyed Sneeze is her first book.
