There's something I want to make you guys aware about that I would really appreciate if you can contribute.
What's happening right now is that even though my e-book is technically finished, after spending a full month working on it, sadly there are two things that are preventing me from getting a job. It has left my dad really concerned about me since this is the third summer in a row where I did not get a job since the last time I've worked.
What they are is, since I currently live in Quebec, employers, even those who do work in Montreal, are expecting their workers to speak French. The other has to do with my issues with perception, especially with chronic frustration, envy, social stigma, and issues with attention and keeping my being and interest to the topics in the real world instead of, you know, what I would always perceive since my childhood. This was found out by both my father and an integration officer I work with at Action Main d'Oeuvre, an employment house in Montreal designed to help out people with intellectual disorders go into the job market and make some money by earning a job.
Anyway, I can't spend this summer going to a school that specializes in letting me learn French a lot more than what I did in my first French college course. It's because of the English Exit Exam I have to redo as part of my college education, as well as my urge to make some money off of something else like this; that's what I'm doing. Some of you may be wondering, "why can't you move to a place where they do speak English?" I do want to move, but I find two catches to this: I am on a loan from Aide financière d'études du Québec, and there are still certain things I have to realistically learn in order for me to move out successfully and manage both my home economy and my life.
As for things that I absolutely want to do and get over with, there are a whole bunch of things that make me feel so down and not very accomplished that I would rather express and get the public to support me quite a lot. Things like listening to a bunch of music that makes me think of things in a bad way such as Edward Maya's Stereo Love, featuring Mia Martina. I would even rather pay my own life expenses right away instead of just waiting for the income to arrive, such as buying myself new shoes as well as pay for part of the Internet, my hygiene, new furniture and upgrades, as well as for education and things. But for right now, I can only use the loan I have from the AFE program for my education, in which I must pay back when I finish university a few years into the future.
In addition, I would rather have some amazing summers and get really well into having a strong and successful life instead of being degraded every second by mental, social, economy, and discriminatory based issues.
So what I'm trying to do here, even though my schedule is going to be incredibly rough because of the English Exit Exam and how I do have issues with trying to make myself calm and not run into a point in life of having a burnout, is I want you people to please make a donation for my efforts to my e-book. I have inadequate funds to meet the standards of mass authors like Rick Riordan, especially if my book is going through self-distribution platforms like Smashwords, Kobo and Amazon.
Take a look at the book cover I'm providing here. (The title and my name have been cropped out because I want to deliver my message to you)
And now, I can really appreciate if you can make a donation for my efforts to get many copies of it sold out! Please, read the following!
Please make a donation to me for an advertising campaign for my e-book, The Asperger Computer! All donations will be kept track and shall be used for a Facebook advertising campaign. Optimistically, I should have a donated budget of $100 before making way for a much larger Facebook ad campaign for my e-book. Donations exceeding the budget will partially add up to the budget for the mass ad campaign, and partially, to boost a post, primarily for the status on Facebook sharing all the links for people to buy my e-book!
If you donate more than $4.00 CAD, you will get my e-book for free. You aren't necessarily paying for my e-book by doing so because all of that $4.00 and over donated will be spent for advertising, to fulfill the purpose of "fundraising" or "not-for-profit" campaign.
Come support my efforts!
