I have a big no soliciting sign on my door, when sales people knock anyway I make it a point to waste as much of their time as I can and not buy anything.

      When I was younger I tried to write that book because there was more than enough material, but set it aside halfway through. I didn’t want to be known for my most painful traumas. I’d rather get a bunch of rejection letters trying to sell weird fiction than a deal selling pain.

        I’m a random on internet, but I’m sorry you had to live that. You are indeed quite strong willed.

        If it’s the “being known for” the problem, you can always write it under a pseudonym.

        Dude, pain and overcoming trauma is a powerful message, you should really consider writing it down. I’d definitely read it!
