My biggest news this month was the incorporation of my
publishing company, Gadfly Press, which has been officially established as a
business with Companies House in the UK. As it costs thousands to publish a
book, I'm focusing on true crime and the subject must have international
relevance such as the Pablo Escobar level of interest ie) movies, series or
millions of followers online as that should generate enough sales to cover the
costs. Writing and publishing are not without challenges: over 1 million books
are published each year in the US alone, and over 99% of them never sell.
I’m hoping that September will be a strong month for my
publishing company. I have a book tied into season 3 of Narcos, which is about
the Cali Cartel, who took over Pablo Escobar’s business. Here’s the blurb that
I just refined with the help of Woking
Writers Circle:
The Cali Cartel: Beyond Narcos
An electrifying account of the Cali Cartel beyond its portrayal
on Netflix.
From the ashes of Pablo Escobar’s empire rose an even bigger
and more malevolent cartel. A new breed of sophisticated mobsters became the
kings of cocaine. Their leader was Gilberto – known as the Chess Player due to
his foresight and calculated cunning.
Gilberto and his terrifying brother, Miguel, ran a multi-billion-dollar
drug empire like a corporation. They employed a politically astute brand of
thuggery and spent $10 million to put a president in power. Although the godfathers
from Cali preferred bribery over violence, their many loyal torturers and hit
men were never idle.
Here’s the cover, featuring Gilberto:
On September 29, the Tom Cruise movie American Made arrives
in the cinema. It’s about Barry Seal, a CIA pilot who flew billions of dollars
worth of cocaine into Mena, Arkansas. Pablo Escobar put a hit out on him, and
George HW Bush wanted him dead because he was threatening to blow the lid on
CIA cocaine trafficking. My
book about Barry Seal is available worldwide on Amazon as a paperback and
e-book. The audiobook should be up in a few months. I just received an email
from Barry Seal’s son, who said he really enjoyed the book. Here's the cover:
So far only my book about Pablo Escobar is available on audio.
The audiobook for Un-Making a Murderer: The Framing of Steven Avery and
Brendan Dassey should be available in May. Un-Making a Murderer has received over 100 Amazon reviews in three
months. I appreciate everyone who takes the time to leave reviews on my books.
My next event is in London on Monday, May 22. I’m doing a
talk about Pablo Escobar. Tickets and
info. 10% off tickets with promo code pablo10
I did a second Ted Talk: Overcoming fear and building
resilience in America's deadliest jails. It was filmed at the University of
Surrey, and the video should be up in 1 month.
If you are stressed out about
life, my first Ted Talk might help you: What facing 200 prison years
taught me about happiness. I was a bit breathy in the first Ted Talk, so I
hired a voice coach for the second. I just got invited to do a third Ted Talk in
India.
On Rt.com, I was interviewed by Sean Stone, the son of film
director Oliver Stone. Sean has read my books about Pablo Escobar and Barry Seal
(American Made). He is helping to expose the prison industrial complex and the dark
side of the War on Drugs. I managed to get over 10 minutes of airtime, a record
for me. Here are the two clips: clip

My talks in the schools are still going well. Here’s some
recent heart-warming feedback I received from a family member of a student:
Hi Shaun you gave one of your talks at my grandson's school
and gave him one of your books life lessons. He was very impressed by you and
gave me the book to read. I was a bit sceptical but the book was small so I
started to read. Well my goodness I was captured by the first page and was
overwhelmed by your courage and insight. I lost my daughter and he his mother
last year. And we have both held it together through sports rugby for him and
gym for me but I am going to get the book on yoga you mentioned in your book
and try and conquer meditation. I have never read anything so inspiring. Thank
you so much for putting your life on paper. Fond regards
Shaun Attwood

I am Alecia used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes…i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Dr Abalaka); he does not advertise on the internet, has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn’t mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I’m sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him as dr.abalaka@outlook.com He travel sometimes.love marriage,finance, job promotion ,gambling voodoo,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,it’s all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something
more. his cell phone number 5182932141 his website is coming up soon!
