Has anybody written their hair story in a book?
I am in the process of writing my book. It is like a hair autobiography (with pictures). It is not a book about treatment. Although I had to chuckle while writing to keep from crying, I can feel the healing in the process. Has anyone else already did this or have a journal they have keep over the years?
I am a self-publish author of 4 "how to" books and a BlogTalk Radio host of 2 shows. But this is the first one that is personal. I feel some apprehension for actually putting it on the market. Since it does not have to do with solutions (I know I have tried many without success) I am not sure if anyone will be interested in my story, hmmmm.

Anything book that deals with acceptance and coping would interest me.

Hi Tiff:
Thanks for the feedback.I am finish my first draft I am letting time marinate my ideas before I publish it. Now. I am working on the description and one of the lines will go like this " I have been on a roller coaster of fear, disappointment, embarrassment, hopes, triumphs and acceptance. It has not been fun. Life has given me lemons and I have learned how to make lemon pie."
What do you think?

Hi Ericka I actually wrote a fictional story loosely based on myself that's 3/4 of the way finished then I stopped. Couldn't figure out how I wanted to finish. It's been months. I kept saying no one will read this! Lol but I think I may pull it back out and try and complete it. Good luck with yours can't wait to read it!

Hi Marieca:
Thanks for the feedback. I will post here, once the website is ready for book launch. I will offer the book for free (for a limited time) for anyone who is willing to help with the launch. Don't give up on your writing. I think it is easier for people to read fiction than non-fiction. Non-fiction is a way to take a break from reality. Whenever you finish and want to self-publish let me know, I can point you in a simple and easy to follow direction.

I meant "fiction" is a way to take a break from reality.

I have recently self-published my 5th ebook. This one is different from the “How to” guides of the past. It is a personal journey. “My Hair Story: Living with hair loss is not easy”. This is a book about coping. It is a hair autobiography from childhood, life in the military and beyond. I need your help with the first stage of marketing which is to get reviews on Amazon (you must have an Amazon account). If you would love to help me out, I would love to gift you a free ebook from Amazon in exchange for any honest review. Below is the YouTube video and the sign-up link. Review promo ends 30 March.
