These nuggets of wisdom are offered by an Academy Award–nominated actor (James Woods), a popular comedian (Aasif Mandvi), and a world-famous novelist (Jodi Picoult) to their sixteen-year-old selves.

These letters present intimate, moving, and witty insights into some of the world’s most intriguing and admired individuals.

Book Description
There once was a time when I was angry with the world, everything and everybody in it. Nothing or no one could make me happy, no matter how hard they tried. People on the outside looking in, felt like I had it made. In reality, I was depressed, self loathing, and hated myself. I overcompensated in area of my life, trying to find acceptance and love from everyone, except the right one. Me. Perhaps, you've found yourself in the same predicaments that I have; jumping from relationship to relationship, seeking something that can only come from within. Maybe you find yourself criticizing everything you do and unable to let go of past hurts. Despite everything you've endured in your past, you are fully capable of building a self love foundation right where you are. In Dear Self, Please Forgive Me, I provide the necessary steps needed to build that foundation of love for self.

Ustinov's renowned gift for mimicry is exploited to the full in Dear Me. Eccentric relatives, school masters, sergeant majors and manic Hollywood moguls are all brought unforgettably to life.

Book Description
Equal parts mail art, data visualization, and affectionate correspondence, Dear Data celebrates "the infinitesimal, incomplete, imperfect, yet exquisitely human details of life," in the words of Maria Popova (Brain Pickings), who introduces this charming and graphically powerful book. For one year, Giorgia Lupi, an Italian living in New York, and Stefanie Posavec, an American in London, mapped the particulars of their daily lives as a series of hand-drawn postcards they exchanged via mail weekly—small portraits as full of emotion as they are data, both mundane and magical. Dear Data reproduces in pinpoint detail the full year's set of cards, front and back, providing a remarkable portrait of two artists connected by their attention to the details of their lives—including complaints, distractions, phone addictions, physical contact, and desires. These details illuminate the lives of two remarkable young women and also inspire us to map our own lives, including specific suggestions on what data to draw and how. A captivating and unique book for designers, artists, correspondents, friends, and lovers everywhere.
