I have longed to bring this story to the canvas of the literary world. I published the novel “The Last Prophet” with Trafford Publishing, and I am hoping to raise 3,000 thousand dollars to help with the Marketing and Publicity campaign. With this 3,000 thousand dollars, I will be able to obtain book reviews from top reviewers, hold a book signing at a major book convention, and release press kits to radio, TV, and major Newspapers. All of these things are essential to help build awareness for the book. “The Last Prophet” book series is about reminding people where true heroes came from. All of the great writers, who have ever penned words to paper, have taken the basic inspiration and ideal of heroes from religious tales. David and Goliath, Moses, Christ, and Joan Arc are only a few examples. It is these stories that taught use the value of a true hero, a person we could look to with abilities, and morals greater then our own. A figure who could by example inspire us, to have faith, yearn to be better, and create a better tomorrow. Its from these stories we have been able to creature such inspirational heroes, it is with the same inspiration that I have chosen to create my own hero. A hero who draws his abilities and morals from the very same stem as these other figures. Not from radioactivity, technology, or outer space, but instead from the root of all morals, and great power. This tale is about the human race facing its annihilation from the evilest of all beings, and the rise of a true hero, a young man who must find faith within himself to become the savor mankind desperately needs. I would like to take a moment to briefly discuss the origin of this story. The storyline of The Last Prophet series has been one I have been creating since I was in high school. I have always wanted to share my love for comic books, and the super heroes they represent. My passion and admiration for those stories inspired me to create my own hero. It wasn’t until I went to college that I found a way to really constructing this storyline. The Last Prophet became the focus of my screenwriting course, and inevitable final project. During college The Last Prophet universe was the storyline for many of my independent films. In 2011 I decided that the canvas of a book was where this story truly belonged. With no real limits, only the limits of one’s imagination, I knew this was the right way to reinvent, and expend the storyline. It was an elegant blend of my love for both comic books, and religion that gave birth to this novel.
