This Book Will Save Your Life
We sell our dreams to pay rent.
We assimilate to be liked or to fit in. To be normal and comfortable. Then, one day, we wake to find ourselves encased in a life that isn’t ours. And we want our life back.
“Hey, Weirdo!” is a concise and raucous guide for everyone who wants to know themselves better and find their way back to their original weird. It’s a valuable map to help you wherever you’ve stepped off your path or gotten lost. It is for those who are sick and tired of being sick and tired, done with wasting their energy holding up their ego and trying to be someone or something they are not.
You were born weird. It’s the meaning you’ve been looking for, it’s why you are here on this planet. And it’s been inside you all this time.
The purpose of this book is to help you get back to your roots, your innate powers and Gift. It contains essays and 8 powerful, professional voices all sharing their stories of growing up weird and carrying that torch. Written in the motivational, kick-in-the-pants bluntness that James Victore is known for, “Hey, Weirdo!” will to give meaning to what were the weakest parts of you that are actually your superpowers.
When ignoring your true self has become too painful and the burden of normal has become too great to bear, admit it...
You’re weird.

Author Bio
Like you, James Victore has always known he was weird—and always felt out of place because of it. When he was a kid he was called “creative” and it wasn’t a compliment. Holding on to his weird and indomitable spirit has not been the easiest path, but has proved the most rewarding.
Today, James’ work is held in private collections as well as museums around the world and has been exhibited (twice!) at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His clients include Adobe, MailChimp, Starbucks, Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, Aveda, Time and Esquire Magazines, Moet & Chandon, and The City of New York. He is a highly sought after speaker and teacher on the subject of creativity and his book, “Feck Perfuction: Dangerous Ideas on the Business of Life” (Chronicle) will change your life. Serious.
