Pre-launch of my Book OH MY !!!

[+ David-SF]

Well some of you know but probably most do not. I have spent the better part of 2018 writing a book with a professional ghostwriter.

Its a big deal for me personally. I have been wanting to tell this story for a long time.

Due to my lack of education and skill level a professional was desperately needed. She is wonderful and has been an incredible help to me this past year.

My book chronicles my very open life through drug addiction homelessness and my healing.

Yes I talk in great deal about my work as an escort. It is probably one of the most powerful parts of my life.

Escorting has been life affirming and with my own personal set of challenges and victories this work has inspired me greatly.

Now that I have gotten the content down. I need to shop it to publishers.

I have joined an agency crowd source platform called "publishizer" and have rolled out a pre-sale launch

the way it works is if I can pre-sale over 500 books this agency will pitch my story to the big traditional publishing houses.

I only have 30 days to get 500 copies pre-sold!!! YIKES!!!

There are lots of ways to get a book deal but very limited for sex workers.

Yes I could self publish however I am compelled to go after a larger distribution to get sex work stories into more main stream audiences.

I could really use your help.

Every copy bought will earn you an entry into my drawing for a $500 gift card from visa.

I want to use some of my marketing budget to make it fun for those supporting me on this up hill road so I am giving away 500 bucks.

anyway !!

You can buy your copy here: https://publishizer.com/every-grain-of-sand/

Print and distribution date will depend on the contract I get most likely 1st week of April.

You can see lots preview videos land many other previews on my book launch page Here:

Thank you so very much for your help!

You guys have always been so supportive of me.

Love David-SF

We're hoping we can maybe convince you to sign it for us either this year at the escort party or next, depending on when it is released?

David I have known you for about 13 years but it seems I hardly knew you at all. I have put in my order and I look forward to learning more.

Ordered one! Good luck with this.

David, we've never met. However, the video you attached above was very moving. If that is any indication of the book itself, I'm sure it's going to do well. I wish you the best of luck and always... the best life has to offer.
