My Book [Archive] - SOH Forum

In the past 7 months I have been here sorta, I have been writing a book on line, "Where Buffalo Roam" Over the years I have written this 1000 times and once even hand written it than burnt it. Well the book is now in the hands of a professional writer who is saying what I could not find the words for.

I need to now sell my book to a publisher and I need your help.
Please go to www.hall-18.com and read my story, than sign up and post something like your comments in my forums at www.hall-18.com , this is important because numbers and comments will get me a good deal with a publisher.

This book tells it all, drugs, sex and rock and roll. It has horrors beyond belief. You will see my songs as they were really thought of. You will be lost in disbeliefs. You will finally know me as I am.
Mind Mine.

Ickie, I am sure you have thought about it... but in the small chance you did not... Did you think about some of the online publishers out there like lulu.com? You submit your work, they tell you how much it is to make, and you set the price anything above that you want... Im working on two books at the moment... mostly pictures.... (I hate writing) Like I said, you probably already thought about it......
Good Luck!

I am looking into a publisher in Traverse City Michigan, where the story begins. This story has never been told and will be a big hit in Traverse City.

This story will hit big not only here in the USA but also around the world....

Don't you want to go to Oprah and speak to millions of viewers and educate us people, what happened inside a State Hospital? I know you already planned or thought about it. :running:

Hey guys and gals....

If you haven't been here.... www.hall-18.com ... try to give a peep on this... On this forum, you will know who Ron is, at least his past ... it was very colorful and sad, and a lot of questions behind where he had been...

Imagine yourself imprisoned into a world that you have no part of..... Everything was new to him... the millions maybe billions of roaches, the mice.... the insane, the love, the excitement, the joy and most of all the peace...

Come and let us share Ron, the bright side that he found now that he want to tell the world what he went through...

Man... and be sure to have a tissue close by... :engel016:

Ickie, i have written you a e mail. I was in book publishing as a Chief editor, International Rights Editor and Pre press production lead, as well as helped start another small press for some years... by profession i am a artist but got in to book world to help a partner. I also have studied the institutions you experienced and know of the one you were in. I know of the trauma and the amazing ordeal. You are very brave and very right to let it out. I will help as i can. You are doing the right thing.

all the best to you.

Hey Ron,

Many thanks. I will be checking this out tonight after work.

I hope it turns out awesome. I have always envied writers. Its like they take a moment in time and freeze it and you can access it from the rest of time.

Joyce Meyers had a really rough childhood. Amazing what horrors some people go through and it just cannot take them down.

Coincidentally, the diamond is born of charcoal, pressed in the harshest conditions and pressures.. Only from such pressures can such a priceless, indestructible stone be created.

It takes a lot of strength to tell some stories, and yours, I think, is one of them.

Good for you.

Hey James,

Hall-18 Forum is a friendly, family oriented forum, like the SOH, There is a General Off Subject (Like the Newshawks).... where you can post what is on your mind, however, it has to be within the Terms Of Use of the Site, which is pretty much like the SOH....

Go for it, James! :ernae:

If it wasn't for spam bots trying out my new scripts, I'd have no one registering at all, lol

Missed this first time round, glad you bumped it back up.

I've read just the first page so far and made a couple of light posts. I will return there Tuesday and read the rest so I can post with more knowledge (Very busy 'till then).

Ickie what you are doing is good for you and it will help others who have gone through simulliar. I wish you the best with the book and will definately buy it when it's availible.

@Chacha, I don't know you personally (of course) but I can honestly say from what I've read from you online we all could use a friend in our lives like you. Don't ever lose whatever it is that drives you.

The website is really coming along Ickie! I was just through their, reading some bits and pieces in the main site.

I hope the book is coming along well and publishing goes smoothly. Sounds like it will be a great book.
