Synopsis
True life story of a very promising young man who, at the tender age of 4 years old was sexually molested by his 18 year old white male baby seater and later on by countless older men at various stages of his life. The life journey of the writer is a mind blowing one at that, as it is to know his true-life story. From a once lovely home with parents, to a broken home where his mother had to take care of him and sister, to a once again aspiring Christian home and all its attendant challenges and abuses he suffered, the writer intends to explain his story without hiding anything (no matter how uncomfortable they may be) hoping that it will inspire and encourage others suffering in silence to come out with it and for parents to think seriously about leaving kids with other people when going out for any reason whatsoever. We witness his enlistment into the US army, religion, his spiritual journey, becoming a successful music executive, achieving success as the founder of a successful LGBTQ magazine, suicide, overcoming substance abuse to finding inspiration as a writer.
