Hi Shaun,

Great books, very compelling. I'm looking forward to the new one on Two Tonys.

I'd be grateful if you could answer a couple of questions I have about going public with a criminal past

I'm about to be sent to UK prison for fraud for approximately 4 years. I intend to keep a prison diary when I go in for publication when I'm out.

In terms of publishing it in the Kindle store, I'm in two minds as to whether I should use my real name or not:

PROS

- Better to be out in the open. No newspapers can expose me
- Getting a brand name started with my real name

CONS

- If the writing doesn't work out, there is the electronic trail on the web forever under my real name for future employers.
- Explaining to my kids what happened if they ever google Dad's name.

Perhaps this question could be the basis for a future blog or Youtube video, but I would be grateful for any comments. I'm personally under the impression that honesty is the best policy.

Thanks

Tommy

hi Tommy I know a prisoner who had a blog with his real name, he met a woman had a child, her parents discovered his blog, and his criminal history and it caused chaos in both their lives, so be careful, if you want to get a job, it could hurt you big time

Dear Shaun your follow-up message will be sent to my gmail account but anyways I wanted to tell you I watched your raving Arizona locked up abroad show just a little while ago that was recorded on my DVR because locked up abroad is a great series. But anyways I just wanted to share with you how bizarre it is that my best friend Derek just got out of prison two days ago for drug charges, and we are both 28 years of age. He served 4 and a half years for his first offense. He has always been the only person I ever had faith in and the only person that I knew deep inside that he was going to succeed one way or another. Anyways you stated that you wanted to make a million in the stocks and that you were going to you stated. I think it is very coincidental that my buddy Derek that just got out of the pen told me two days ago that he was going to make a million in the stock market and he is the type that won't say something if he does not mean it. While he was in prison he told me he met a guy that has two more years in prison but is currently a Millionaire in the stock market and Derek told me he taught him anything and everything and exactly how much money and who to invest in and the exact percentages of the guys same exact way he does his stocks and has copies of the guys paperwork that the guy gave Derek and guaranteed Derek would make over a million in A three years time with only using $11,000 dollars and he wants me to seriously get involved with him on it as well and says in five years he wants to you on his own investment company. I just wanted to share all of this with you because you wanted that to be your goal and said you were going to make it happen, but then you made a bad decision, in a way hahaha and then got locked up , and my buddy Derek had no goals or exact ideas on what he wanted to do to be successful so he just started so he just started selling drugs although he is a very smart man and is very determined and means it when he says something, but then tells me 2 days ago how he was going to make a million in stock market. Please get back to me with your thoughts and I just have to say one more thing: so many coincidences just isn't a coincidence anymore, and yes I mean that in a few different ways all at the same time but take it however you would like lol. I do know that things do happen for a reason even if there is no reasonable explanation from anybody.
