Why book project

=samcatt:iconsamcatt: reports, January 10
Most of my friends already know what I dealt with as a child. This is for the people who don't.

Well I was abused by of all people, my parents, physically and mentally.

And i've been writing a lot of poetry about this, and early 2008 I decided it was time to publish these works, not only is this for me, I am also wanting to publish this book for a very important reason, to abolish child abuse. I will be donating a portion of the profits to the NSPCC.

I want to advertise this project anywhere I can. And i'm asking for your support.

I need to do this to let people know what’s happening behind closed doors. Please help me advertise this; no one should go through what I have been through. And hopefully I can help kids who have.
Here is my project so far






For the whole project see here [link]

Please support me at face book too, be come a fan of Samcatt
[link]

this project is going to cost me £1800 pound to have the book published with all the trimmings, I know there is publishes out there that publish for free, but they don’t copyright my work, they don’t publish round the world, and the book will not all it can be, cover wise. And the worst of all, there would be fewer profits to shear between the NSPCC and me. I know that might sound selfish, but as far as i’m concerned, ive spent all my adult life dealing with this and writing all this poetry. Hopefully I can raise the money before summer 2009. And if anyone knows of anyway to raise the money quicker, please let me know, I will be very grateful.
