Mat Devine, lead singer of the band Kill Hannah, wrote a popular music blog for Fuse TV, but when readers started flooding the inbox with questions about important life dilemmas, it quickly evolved into a bona fide advice column.
Mat's humorous and touching column, aptly titled "The Raccoon Society," gained a lot of traction as his fans sought advice on serious issues such as abuse, bullying, and self-mutilation, as well as lighter subjects like dealing with siblings, dating, fashion, and surviving prom.
Readers will also gain valuable insight from special guests Amanda Palmer, Mikey Way from My Chemical Romance, and Tomo Milicevic from 30 Seconds to Mars.
"Everything I've ever felt, but could never put into words, is poetically orchestrated through Mat Devine's writing. In a lonely world, a book like this will make you feel like you belong. Simply put, Weird War One changed my life." - Kat Von D
"This is the book that every outsider needs in his/her pocket. It's hilarious, clever, irreverent, sometimes gut-wrenching proof that the greatest people seem to fight the hardest battles." - Marvin Scott Jarrett, founder/publisher of NYLON Magazine
