Adam Stuart Pick aims to generate interest and awareness in the struggle with mental illness by service users, and promote The principle of Recovery, and shine a positive light on the issues involved with Print-on-Demand Availability of “Littleboylost” at Lulu.com.

LLGBC, Leicester (PRWEB) July 6, 2006 -- Adam Pick officially launches “Littleboylost” and its companion volume “The complete writings of” having published these two volumes based on and around mental health issues in conjunction with Lulu (www.lulu.com), the world’s fastest-growing provider of print-on-demand books, and the LLGBC, with two thirds of the Generated profit going to Leicester Pride.

“Littleboylost” is an organic process, a journey of discovery, an exploration of self by the author, who was trying to come to terms with abuse both mental sexual and physical, whilst strengthening his grip on life, as well as his desire to live. At times dark and despairing, at others light, full of humor and joy, this book explores many themes, whilst holding onto the hope that recovery is possible.

Adam Pick wrote “Littleboylost” to help both himself and others who were struggling with voice hearing, suicidal thoughts, self harm, hallucinations and deep depression, by putting all of these thoughts on paper and working through them, almost like a personal therapy. The results were surprising and amazingly positive. He came to Lulu because she wanted to be in control of the publishing process and found Lulu’s print-on-demand tools to be fast, easy and, most importantly, free. “Littleboylost” is available for purchase at www.lulu.com, in a marketplace filled with other unique and wonderful surprises.

“Independent publishing and print-on-demand is the wave of the future, and the future is now,” said Adam Pick. “The Lulu process allows me to cut out the middle man (i.e. a separate publisher) and get my work out there the way I want it. My book is much like Lulu itself -- it puts control of your destiny in your own hands.”
