Hello. My name is Paul and I come from a country where it has recently become illegal to write books with LGBTQ+ characters. Except for those, of course, who are presented as perverts and scum.
So I left my country, translated my book into English and am now trying to make a living as a writer. Being a foreigner with no connections, no money or even just friends here, it’s very difficult, but I don’t give up.
So far I haven’t been able to find a literary agent, so I posted my book on Amazon. I’ve already received quite a few positive reviews – 78 reviews with an average rating of 4.6 to be exact. So at least my book is not complete crap..:)
Now I’m trying to find new readers, so I’m happy to give PDF versions of my book to everyone. Also, my book is free to everyone who has Kindle Unlimited.
I will not post a link here so that it is not an advertisement. But you can find it yourself on Amazon – My Inner Stranger: A Knockout Story by Paul Devereaux.
Here’s a short description:
A 35-year-old gay IT specialist Jack Sullivan embarks on a journey of self-rediscovery when he decides to radically change his life and become a pro boxer in order to fulfill his dark purpose. But why did he choose a homophobic, racist, and sexist former heavyweight champion as his coach?
MY INNER STRANGER is a character-driven underdog story about the triumph of the human spirit that centers underrepresented LGBTQ+ voices.
At its heart is a wonderful protagonist from whom you will learn that people can change and problems can be solved if you approach them with an open heart and real courage.
This unconventional book raises the issues of toxic masculinity, immigration, sexual identity, domestic violence, and psychological abuse, while still managing to remain an entertaining page-turner.
If you would like a free copy of my book, please leave a comment or send me a DM.
