Sappy Medium by JB Copeland
This isn't a self-help book. It's a self-feel book. It's a rough draft — like we all are. And that's exactly the point.
Sappy Medium: The Rough Draft is a raw, unfiltered look at what it means to break down, get back up, and learn to love yourself through it all.
Why you'll love this book...
No chapters. No cliffhangers. No pressure to finish it all in one sitting. Just a book you can open anywhere, any time, and land on something that gets you.
It's a meaningful gift.
You’ll actually read it.
It gets how you feel.
It’s for everyone.
It looks good.

It’s a book of short, standalone writings by JB Copeland—think letters, thoughts, reflections, and emotional journal entries. We like to call them “snippets from the soul”. There’s no beginning, middle, or end. Just truth, tenderness, and a little wisdom on every page.
Not at all. This is a “flip-it-open-when-you-need-it” kind of book. Start anywhere. Skip around. Read one page or ten. There’s no rules here, just resonance.
Honestly? Anyone who’s ever felt too much. Or not enough. Perfect for:
- The friend who’s going through it.
- Your coworker who’s into self-discovery and mindfulness.
- Someone starting over—new city, new relationship, new career.
- You, on a random Tuesday.
Kind of… but make it poetic and non-preachy. It won’t tell you what to do. But it’ll remind you that you’re not alone. Every page shares a glimpse into what it really means to be human.
Absolutely. This book makes an amazing gift for friends, partners, your therapist (yes), or anyone who needs a little emotional hydration. Pairs well with a cup of tea and a long exhale.
Yes, 100%. Emotional honesty has no gender. JB’s voice speaks to anyone willing to feel something. If you’ve got a heart, you’re invited.
It’s not polished. It’s not performative. It’s not pretending to have all the answers. Sappy Medium: The Rough Draft is just that—a rough draft. And in that rawness, it feels deeply real. A perfectly imperfect book.
Let’s just say… this is the start of something. Stay tuned. And bring tissues.
