Hello all! It is my honor to reach out to you today. I am in the final stretches of what has been a 13 year project culminating in what will be a 550 page epic tome that has affected us all in some way, shape, or form. For me, my mental illness started at 9:03 AM on the morning of September 11, 2001. For many others, we are either directly affected by it or with its one in four estimates of people being directly impacted in this world, we all know someone who struggles with this horrific disease.

I am reaching out for your assistance today because while I budgeted properly for this book launch, what I did not foresee coming was a brand new roof in the fall that took $20,000 out of my pocket but protected my house. So like everything in life, we do what we have to do. And that is why I’m doing my first, and what I hope to be only, gofundme account.

My book is slated to go live May 16, which is also my 57th birthday. It is my prayer that you can help contribute to my cause that I know will inspire, educate, and make you laugh and cry at the same time. Any amount you can contribute will go solely to this book and any associated bills. From my pure heart to yours, I hope you can find it within your means to help contribute to my cause to get me across the finish line.

Please join me on May 16 at Bar Anticipation in Belmar, New Jersey from 1 o’clock to 7:00 PM for the greatest bands the Jersey Shore has ever produced! Food and booze are always flowing at Bar Anticipationand so are the good times!

God bless you guys, and God bless America!
