Hello, my name is Jay.

Please check out my video below!!!

I'm back to raise more funds for the second round of self-publishing my first full-length novel, Sentient ! 

Here are just a few of the remaining costs that I could use some help with:


1. Book Interior  and Back Cover Design: $600 
2. Marketing and PR: $2,300 or more--the more I market, the more successful I will be!!
3. Final Proofread to make it super snazzy: $1,700

You'd think as a writer I'd have something really amazing to say right here. I'm not sure I do. Honestly...I can't believe I'm here. I am a bit speechless. Ten months ago, I embarked on a journey to become the writer I'd dreamt of being since the age of seven. I committed my days, and often my weekends, to finishing Sentient and working on new projects. Now I have four unique writing projects in various stages of the publication process, and I couldn't be more content. 

So then why the need for a GoFundMe...you ask?

For the past ten months I've been working a few odd jobs, but mostly I've been blessed with some savings from a house sale back in 2019. But those savings are about to run out. Soon I will have little choice but to go back to full-time work again. I've loved every moment of this journey. Esther Hicks says the best thing you can do for others is to make yourself happy. This is REALLY it. I've never been more at peace and in constant contentment in all my life. And the best thing I can offer this world other than my writing gifts is my own inner peace. 
 

I realize this request may not seem urgent to you. It's urgent to me. Sentient is more than just a book. It's about the negative consequences of industrialized animal agriculture. It's about climate change. It is extremely timely and relevant for today's world. Please consider donating so I can get this thing published ASAP. It's a book with a message and I want to get it out there. So please consider donating because it just may change someone's mind about factory farming, even if it doesn't change yours. 

Love and blessings,

Jay
