At the beginning of each month I feel an intense pressure to write one of these letters, but recently the time has never felt "right". This month, however, the time is definitely right. Because tomorrow (May 5th) my book will finally be available in the USA! For those who don't know what it looks like...

You can order it from most online stores like Amazon and B&N, or you could get some air and buy it in a real store.
If you're from New York, and you ride the subway, please look out for the magazine Metro US this week. It’s available for free in most subway stations, and they’re running some exercises from the book inside the magazine — to make your commute a little happier.
If you spot the book, see any cool features about it, or just want to share some of your pages, tag your photos with #HTBHbook so I can see them. If you’d like to share photos anonymously instead (or say hello) you can always email me.

The book is currently being translated into a number of foreign languages, which is really exciting. So if you’re not from America, you may want to wait for the edition specific to your country. The neon green cover above is the UK edition. Here’s a list of countries (so far) where the book will be available.

Ok, what else is there? Next Saturday (May 9th) I’ll be on the radio talking about the book, and probably happiness too. I’m very nervous about it, and would ordinarily insist that none of you listen. But I’m trying to get over those kind of anxieties. So if you would like to listen, the show is on WPKN and it’s called Second Saturday with Bob Johnson. The station is based in Connecticut, but you can listen online.
Lastly, one of my favourite writers, Brianna Wiest, has set up an organisation "devoted to dissecting what it means to be human". It’s called Soul Anatomy, and I recently answered 20 questions for them. You can read all 20 of my answers at soulanatomy.org. This is one of them.

I have plenty more exciting things coming up this year, but I feel like I’ve spoken about myself — and said the word “book” — more than enough for one email. So next time, we’ll talk about you, I promise.
Until then, just try your best, and don’t forget to breathe.
