Hello,

<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1z2cjqh2d2mddnhig5aht0j7lqc0ud1ro75gcb84g>

You may be familiar with our very popular Head First series
<http://post.oreilly.com/rd/9z1zaos7d3do26hsu7mpotgp5aeqnms92kcpipn91m0>,
but have you ever thought about writing one of our brain-friendly guides?
It takes a special storyteller to weave learning principles with code! If
you are interested in learning more, please contact our Head First editor Meg
Blanchette <meghan at oreilly.com>.

Cheers,

—Marsee Henon and Jon Johns

P.S. Jon will be in San Francisco at Scala by the Bay
