Creation Expenses for The Cells

Donation protected
Greetings!  Now is the time for my 2nd book, The Cells of the Tissue That Should Feel, to come forth.  There has been a great amount of support for my first literary effort, The Chronicles of Air, Water and the Source.  It has afforded me a spot as Top 10 Finalist for National Black Book Festival in 2012 (the only book of poetry in the Top 10) and meeting with the eldest son of Former Prime Minister and Pan-Africanist Leader, The Honorable Patrice Lumumba of Democratic Republic of Congo.  Let the adventures continue!

The Cells of the Tissue That Should Feel -- the second published book by Etaniel Ben Yehuda (E as Poetlove Water). 'The Cells' is the extroverted communication that follows the debut book release of The Chronicles of Air, Water and the Source (iUniverse Publishing). The voice is louder, the verbal "smacks" come with more force, the sociopolitical commentary envelopes clear analysis and personal support is more substantial. The writings are formatted as poetry and prose.

Some featured works included are: "As the Nile River Rises", a poem that speaks on current manifestations of Arab racism against Indigenous East African groups; "Markwan's Letter", a honestly written "letter" from the perspective of a young Black man living in urban USA; "Why I Love....." Series, a series of poem that shares the reasons/cultural nuances that I love about various places I have lived and/or visited; and "The Connection", it takes a humorous approach to the benefits of eating healthy, natural foods

As an Independent Artiste, it has its rewards and challenges. Creating without any bureacratic restriction is most rewarding. Yet, the challenge of funding various literary/creative arts project is limiting.  Consequently, I am reaching out to the world of supporters.  

The funds of this campaign will go to accomplish the following:

- Publishing and marketing of book.
- Book release (including reception) in Brooklyn, NY in August 2014.
- Mailing/Delivery expenses.
- Gain a wider reading audience.
- Travel sharing my literary piece of art.
- Sharing my soul with as many folks as possible!

Thanks in advance for your support!!!  Bliss
