My Mission


It has been a while since I last blogged although that DOES NOT mean that I have not been active, please don't get it twisted. I have been more active on my Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn pages the past month than on here, my food blog also I suppose.

My book tour was meant to officially end in August but marketing a (lifelong) product never really ends and fortunately for me the demand was there so extra dates mounted up- I'm not complaining. My extended tour has taken me to Watford, different parts of London and soon Bristol. There are many literary festivals taking place this month that I hope to take advantage of but that takes extra time and money that my circumstance does not permit.

Speaking of which, that leads me to explain my mission that I have mentioned before to my audience more so via my mailing list and social networks, as some may know I am raising funds to further market my book and publish the special edition by Christmas. This is a much bigger mission than it sounds as that takes plenty of funding. Further marketing in regard to my book means; videos, online ads, print ads, staff, travel and accommodation for extra tour locations. The cost of all this is in the thousands but EVERY LITTLE HELPS! And I need help from my audience and corporate sponsors to reach this goal. Book sales are wonderful but not enough to raise what is needed for what I am trying to achieve. There are also rewards granted in return of your sponsorship.


The feedback and reviews that I have received so far from audiences as well as Radio Presenters and Promoters over the course of my tour, has been absolutely wonderful. I am so pleased that my writing has given so many people so much pleasure, and I intend to do the same with the special edition. I'm stepping up! Like I said this is a mission dammit. Not one that I can't achieve either, just one that I would be needing extra help with, a crowdfund per se. Sponsorship is imperative here. I appreciate your assistance even if that is just through the means of reviews, endorsement, buying my book, sharing and liking my social media posts or attending my promotion events, if not financial sponsorship. Taking the time to fully read this post with the consideration of helping me in some way is also greatly appreciated.

Full details about my requested sponsorship can be found via the link. I have formal proposals available for corporate sponsorship and funding of significant amounts, simply contact me to find out more.

To know more about my book you can see to the Amazon page which contains some amazing, authentic five star reviews (THANK YOU SO MUCH READERS!) and to hear some of the content you can watch the following videos taken from my book tour this past year. Please note that the special edition will include pictures (such as the hardback edition) and an audio CD.

 

I hope to see an increase in my sponsorship or even readership with your participation shortly. Thank you in advance. In the meantime you can sign up to my mailing list to remain updated with my projects as my newsletters also have the occasional sponsorship options click here.

Until Next Time,

An Author's Sensation

I am officially an Author! I am currently developing more than one book but my debut book of poetry is soon to be released. This is an incredible feeling. So much has gone into this new or should I say "revived" part of me without me even realising for the most part. It was inevitable as I used to write the longest of intriguing stories at school and in my spare time as a child, I've written scripts and have enough poems and story ideas to publish five books for that matter, if I had the time and money to do so. For the past two years, in the little time that I get from all my other work I have been researching the publishing industry as well as today's self-publishing strategies. I also went to a Publishing Boot Camp this summer that was insightful to say the least. I'm on my grind!




The Deevah Renaissance Vol.1 is the first edition in a series of poetry books to come from me. This debut collection will be giving you some of my best, some of my favourite and most certainly my crowd favourite poems and more. I am in the final stages of editing, designing and concluding the final draft. However, without the large marketing, production and distribution efforts that come from the backing of a publishing house, I am in great need of financial support. Therefore I am starting an online crowding funding campaign to reach my financial goal of having my long-awaited book printed and distributed appropriately. More details of how you can donate towards my fundraising campaign and sponsor my project can be found via www.sponsume.com once my online campaign and promo goes live. I will keep you updated of when it officially becomes interactive.
