Brian is both the author and subject of this memoir. He has spent 17 years surviving with PTSD while seeking redemption, seeking purpose, and traveling the world.
The creator and author is also the central subject of this true narrative memoir. Brian was an injured, active duty marine who was drugged and raped. He experienced the aftermath of the sexual trauma, including retaliation by his peers and superiors as well as PTSD. Every story in the work is true: the event and military treatment; the 17-year fight for vindication; the highs and lows; the travels; the work with producers. And, it is all documented professionally and personally (where necessary).
In addition to the book, Brian is planning a parallel podcast that covers the various chapters as well as “live” post-show events, including chats with characters involved and other elements. Further, there are plans to adapt the work for the screen.
He spent his career to this point moving up the corporate ladder until the last few years, when he started following his passion: beginning with this story and continuing onward to creating film, TV, and audio works that provides a voice for the marginalized, treats people fairly, brings joy to the masses, and makes the world a smaller place.

Hello everyone,
It's been an exciting month, getting my story out there. Overcoming certain fears, my quality of life has already been enhanced with the love and support from you all, as well as finding many others with similar circumstances.
The pre-order campaign is wrapped-up and the reception has humbled and surprised me. This couldn't happened without your support! Having wrapped-up the pre-order campaign, here's where we stand.
Copies sold: 61 (woot!)
Publishers interested: 8 (including a traditional independent publisher)
Where we go from here:
At this point, I am opening discussions and negotiating with these publishers. More details to come as that happens. Meanwhile, I continue plugging away at the book. And what's more, a conversation yesterday turned into one final chapter. This one will blow your mind, as it has mine.
Thanks again for your support, look forward to updates as well as the book once it is ready for print!
Much love,
Brian Schoenborn
