Help me publish my true story, Blood on the Mirror

I am an artist and overcomer from the streets, mental health issues and all that goes with it. I have lived through suicide attempts, drug addiction, a stint at prostitution, recovered from a major brain injury (temporary paralysis/stroke at time of injury) and many other character-building challenges.

I am a current board member at Toi Ora Live Arts Trust and love coming alongside others who face difficulties in life.

I believe my journey from the streets to salvation can inspire others to be the best they can be...

I have written my story and need funds for printing and publishing, I have the artwork (my own), I have a publisher and have written 47,000+ words. It now needs to be edited and produced.

Im looking for assistance/donations to get this book out in the marketplace...

Printing costs $1,600.00 (not including design)

Design & Publishing $450 - 500

Editing $350 - $400 approx

Pricing options: 50 copies $7.00

100 copies $5.90

200 copies $5.30

Proof $65.00

I would love to print 200 copies, which would cost $1,060 (plus GST)

As I have mentioned above - I really believe there are people who would benefit from reading my story. I already have people keen to purchase copies in America, and would appreciate any donation at all....
