Hello From Brooklyn,

If you are in a hurry, please click here now. If not, I’d love it if you PLEASE could read my words below.

Day in and day out you all work with me to help get people elected, to advocate for civil rights and human rights, and to provide support to people and families in need. THANK YOU SO MUCH. ⁣
⁣
Now I am asking for your support for myself and my family. ⁣
⁣
As you may know, nearly 2 years ago I decided to become completely independent as a writer, journalist, organizer, and entrepreneur. I’m glad I did - because it’s what allows me to speak truth to power here - and all over the world. Without this freedom that I have, I don’t think I would’ve been able to do most of the work I do in the world. ⁣
⁣
I can’t be fired. ⁣
And that’s what makes me dangerous. ⁣
⁣
I even left my literary publishing deal so that I could have the freedom to write exactly what I know needs to be said. My last book, MAKE CHANGE, was a NY Times bestseller. But I learned soooooo much about those lists, and the publishing industry itself, that I just decided I’d rather opt out of those things altogether. ⁣
⁣
Which brings me to YOU.⁣
⁣
I am self-publishing my memoir, Lemons and Stones! So far an amazing 6,047 of you have pre-ordered your copy, but our next big goal is to get to 10,000 pre-orders then to 25,000 so that we can get the best discounts on printing, shipping, and more.

I KNOW YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE THIS BOOK! It’s simultaneously funny, infuriating, colorful, emotional, insightful, inspirational, transparent, shocking, and much more! I can’t wait for you to have it!⁣
⁣
Doing it all like this allows me to control the entire supply chain. From the artists who did the cover to who prints the book, to who ships it, and everything in between. ⁣
⁣
I’ve learned SO much about who gets left out of this, but controlling it all allows me to make sure people that so often get left behind are primary in my publishing process. ⁣
⁣
Please please PLEASE pre-order your copies here today. ⁣
⁣
I simply can’t afford, like billionaire publishers, to print a ton of copies THEN sell them. ⁣
⁣
I have to pre-sell them THEN print and ship them. ⁣
⁣
You can go directly to LemonsAndStones.com to get your copies now.
⁣
1. I have signed copies⁣
2. Bulk discounts⁣
3. International shipping ⁣
⁣
I love and appreciate you all so much and thank you so doggone much for your support!

Your friend and brother,

Shaun
