Those awesome moments when you're browsing through your local bookstore and stumble across your own novel :)
It's a cliche, but moments like this prove dreams really do come true.. such an incredible journey, from the day the inspiration for this important book manifested in my mind I knew I had to write it. Thousands of hours went into the planning, drafting, editing, design and publication over a span of eight long years. Despite lots of setbacks I never gave up on my vision. I always believed in the power of Sebastian's story and its potential to make a positive difference.
But a book is useless unless it's read.. So I need your support. This book needs to be in the Christmas stocking of every teenager you know. Share, spread the word, get in store and purchase a copy today (Berkelouw, Gleebooks, Harry Hartog) or buy a hard copy/download the ebook online: www.awakeningsebastian.com

Positive conversations about mental health break taboos and encourage help seeking behaviours. It's a key message within Awakening Sebastian, a novel ALL young people should read.
