Gits Ferrari - Author of NSJS and TOSA

[gits]

Hello,

I'm 42 years old, living in Los Angeles County to take care of a relative. I look forward to the day I can return abroad. I'm truly happier abroad, mainly because of the lack of any direct family stability in the USA. My mother played every feminist trick in the book on me growing up, and my later relationships with women were pretty f***ed up because of it. This woman even allowed me to be molested and when informed threw the responsibility back on me. (enuf bout her)

I have been distracted enough these last several months, that I couldn't come anywhere near this introduction page, however, there happens to be a certain lull in my life right now, so I'd like to use this as a place to get my image straight before I start distributing the sequel to my first novel , Not SARS Just Sex (NSJS). the new title is The Oil Sands of Alberta (TOSA).

Both stories are about ME, struggling to make it in Taiwan. I haven't yet written about my first time in Taiwan in 1996, however there is a story there. NSJS takes place from 2001 to 2005 , and the sequel TOSA continues from Jan 1, 2005 to 2007.

It's not the best writing in the world, and I've learned a lot printing these books.

free ecopy of NSJS: http://www.notsarsjustsex.com/free45.htm (warning, the latest printed version of NSJS is more accurate, with less typos)

If you want printed copies of either of the books, I have softbacks and hardbacks available.
