The book; What Ever It Takes, God. The Most Difficult Things For Men To Survive, is now available at:
https://www.authorhouse.com/BookStore/ItemDetail.aspx?bookid=36478


I can remember wanting my brother and mother to read Abused Boys, by Mic Hunter so they could get a better understanding of me, then I decided to write a book, a book by a survivor for survivors and significant others. I think the world should know first hand what we face after the abuse and what it takes to survive.

Any feedback about the cover or the sneak peak would be appreciated, I am a bit nervous about all of this but I am also very excited. My main thought is; "I hope I have represented all of us in a positive light."

Thanks
 
John,

I like it so far, I think I'll buy it!

Love ya

Darrel
 
John,

It's late and I don't think I'll be going there tonight, but please know I'm going to go look soon and I'll let you know.

Lots of love,

John
 
It definatly is a big difference, from third person to first person, writing about the experiences of others to writing sbout your own experiences. Just reading the preview, the message carries more weight. I really like it!
 
Thanks man, I have been looking forward to this day for so long, my publisher asked me not to say anything about the book until it was complete, now that I am able to tell all of you guys about it I am very anxious to hear back from you about the cover and the sneak peek. Thanks for looking at it Willtobecomplete, it means a lot to me, I mean it.
 
Hello, John,

Thank you for providing a link to your book.

And congratulations on having it published!

Reading the small sample provided, it is apparent how much of your heart and soul you have given in the hope that you may help others.

Your description of coping mechanisms morphing into addictive process is right on the money. It was so easy for me to understand and identify with the experience you described.

Giving so freely of yourself about such an intensely personal topic is an extraordinarily courageous, loving effort!

May God continue to bless you and your work,

Regards,

Danny
 
Danny, your post brought tears to my eyes. Thanks for your reply. It was hard to send the book off to a publishing company. I have gone through so many different feelings about putting my life out for the world to see that I am worn out. I ask for your support and prayers and especially feedback. The feedback from you guys is something that I treasure most of all, it lifts my spirit and I need that right now.

Thanks for the reply.
 
John,

I am not strong to read this right now, but I read the opening and it was good.
I have pretty much written my book, but how can we write one book when there are many books to be written!

I dont suppose it will ever stop perps from dealing out the agony, as they see it as some type of love.

The book cover is cool so it should sell, because ppl always judge the book by its cover, and I am not saying it is not a good book.

Factual books on survival through childhood are big sellers, but nobody could ever believe the reality of how much a survivor has to suffer.

It is such a small price for somebody to read a factual story of abuse, and how it really affects the survivor, I struggle also with that issue, just as you do.

I have got enough material for three books already, and have not been back to it for quite a bit, because it too disturbs me to read it.

I will consider buying it, but do not forget, it is your life that you portray, and nobody here will hurt you after reading yr story,

John,

I like the preview and will buy the book. I haven't been able to do that from Authorhouse because they require the customer's telephone number and I consider that irrelevant to a book purchase. But I will look for it on Amazon and get it from there when it shows up.

Much love,
Larry
 
Thanks Larry, I remember your first post and it is greatly appreciated. I was a bit off with my confidence and anxiety but I figured out why it was so intense. My testosterone levels were very low, it is hard to keep them managed when my body has been doing it so well for so long. I am taking steroids to help my low levels and I find myself on a rollercoster ride, with all the highs and lows. I thank you for your replies they mean a lot.
