Publisher's Synopsis
All artists struggle, wondering how to make ends meet while doing their art. As an artist, I went to figure drawing sessions until I got really good at drawing naked bodies. I thought the next stage in learning was to be able to touch the body. I had also been on television and print for my activism through art. I needed to up the ante. As a writer, then, I already had a monthly column on the arts. I was ready for my next move. I wanted to write books-memoirs and related stories. I became a masseur to kill two, or even ten, birds with one stone. To touch the body and improve my figurative art and pay the rent. Maybe I will find a story from the adventure... but the story found me! I met Celebrities, Authors, Taxi Drivers, Actors, Singers, Radio Personalities, Hustlers, Leaders, Art & Auction Experts, CEOs, Chairmen of the Board! They all had something to share to keep the flame going for people like me who are not yet successful! The hour-long massages for them became, to me, inspiring, wonderful hour-long mentoring sessions of leaders and dreamers who have achieved their goals. I was looking to write my story, but they gave me their valuable real-world teachings.
