About this project
Hey everyone! My name is Nick. Some of you know me--some of you may not. I'm an author from Panama City, Florida and I've just completed my 2nd manuscript!
HERE'S WHAT IT'S ABOUT!
"MINUTEMEN is the story of 4 dudes who who get mixed up with a prolific stripper queen and end up making a huge mess with no foreseeable way of escape. Thom, John, Nate and Ezra are reeling from each of their respective relationships coming to a most disappointing end. When the Gulf Oil Crisis ensues, B Nocturne, a pimpess and strip club owner, recruits each of the young men to manage her quickly-growing economy of illicit activity--a result of her brilliant plan to capitalize on the oil cleanup effort. Once the boys are in place, a series of spills occurs--causing the the hazwopers to come swarming and the beach-side Moss Head Motel (B’s headquarters) to become the grounds for the biggest, ongoing nightly bizarre of illegal recreation the Gulf town of Indian River has ever seen."
HERE'S WHAT I PLAN TO DO WITH YOUR MONEY...
1. Ease publishing costs!
2. Purchase ad space!
3. Set up a bad-to-the-bone website!
4. Produce sweet videos, photos, artwork and party for an extended release!
5. Execute simultaneous eBook, Audio Book, Hard Copy release of MINUTEMEN in both Panama City and Pensacola!
6. Go on my first book tour and share MM with Florida!

FAQ
-
My first book was aimed at a really niche audience. It was for southerners who grew up in bible belt churches. I sold more copies than most self-published authors, and it's still moving. I received mostly positive reviews; however, those that were negative were welcome (given that my intent was to illicit such reviews for publicity's sake).

The manuscript is complete; the book will be published/printed hopefully by the end of September or the beginning of October.
