Stuart Waldner hasn't added a story.

Hi, my name is Stuart Waldner and I would really appreciate your support to help get my book,  Escape the Meatrix—Eat plants, Feel Great, and Save the Planet , published.

 


 

I’m passionate about this project because I firmly believe the information in it will help us all live  happier, more productive, longer lives.  For example, cancer is still the second leading cause of death in the U.S. even though millions of dollars are spent each year fighting it. My book cites a Mayo Clinic study saying  diet and nutrition alone could prevent one-third of all cancers! Wow! That’s just one of the many revelations my book contains which the Meatrix tries to keep hidden!

Early readers have said the information in my book has profoundly affected their lives. They told me it's easy to understand, and the clear-cut science is eye opening. 

My book isn't written for plant-based eaters, it's a book meant for everybody.

We all desperately need the science-based information my book provides, but publishing is an incredibly expensive endeavor. Publishing has changed a lot over the years with self-publishing or hybrid deals the norm. A full publishing deal simply isn't available unless you're an established writer or a well known person. A publishing company is working with me, but I'm paying all the expenses myself. I was very surprised by how much publishing costs and was encouraged to set up this page to help offset the expense. So far, I've been getting by on borrowed money, and I'm really hoping to be able to pay back my loans and could really use your help to get my book out into the world!

It will cost at least $15,000  to bring my e-book, paperback, and hardcover to market.  I know many people enjoy listening to books while driving or exercising. Plus I have friends with low- to no-vision who can only listen to audio books.  In order to be inclusive I want to offer my book in an audio format, as well. The audio version alone will cost another $6,000 for the narrator, studio time, etc.

For the sake of your health and the planet, needless to say the animals, I believe you would find this book a worthy investment.

Thank you!

I tried to find ways to thank you for supporting me and this project, so my FundRazr campaign is multi-tiered, with different perks for each level of giving. However, if you just want to support this project and don't want the stuff, you can click on the "Contribute" button above and at the bottom of the next page click "continue without perks" to make a contribution of any amount.

And, if you act quickly, for a minimum donation of $500 you can have your name printed on a gratitude page in the first edition of my book! To get your name included as a patron in the first edition you need to act  before March 1,  so I can meet my publisher's deadline.

Thanks so much for visiting my FundRazr campaign, and please share it with your family, friends, and on social media. Thanks!
