"More than a stunning debut. It is the announcement of a bold new literary voice"
—Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Hi Uncle Jason, you probably don’t remember me, after all I was just a baby when you chose to hang. I can’t help but feel partially guilty about your choice. Is it strange to miss someone you’ve never known. My parents tell me stories about how much of a good person you were and how much you helped those around you, I’m kinda jealous. I do try…I try to be like you, I try to be like the hero I’ll never meet. I also hope you’re happy, where ever you may be. Dad misses you, he would always alert us to your birthday and I would celebrate it…alone, I’m told that I got my middle name from you. I guess that means we’re closer than we think? I don’t know, at this point I’m rambling. I should let you go, I hope you’re watching over and protecting us. I guess I’ll see you when I see you…um, bye!
