Gay Teen's Book on Amazon Books and Kindle: "Chasing the Flame: A Gay Narrative in Photographs" to be Released for Distribution Early March
19-year-old Michael Mangus of North Tonawanda, New York, has a gay narrative in photographs pending release which depicts his progress from bullied gay teen to drag performer.
LEDGEWOOD, NJ, February 26, 2011 /Books PR News/ -- "Chasing the Flame: A Gay Narrative in Photographs: A Gay Millennial's Progress from Shunned Student to Drag Star" is published on Amazon Books and Kindle, and will be available for distribution the first week of March.
From a January press release on PR Log:
"The text follows the plight of Michael Mangus in 2005, the then 14-year-old North Tonawanda, New York high school student who was bullied in school for his gay identity. Things reached a crisis point when he received a written death threat, and was forced to leave the dangerous environment.
The story takes us through Michael and his mother's - a former school teacher - 5 year struggle with school administrators and state offices, and escalates to the Supreme Appellate Court level. Chicago attorney and gay advocate Jay Paul Deratany lends his help, but eventually it is Michael's determination to embrace and celebrate his gay identity which is the key to the resolution
The 140 page, 8 x 10 soft-cover glossy book contains over 75 images of Michael, in his "boy identity", and as his stage persona, "Anita Waistline". It will also be available as an ebook and Kindle book on Amazon.
Michael Mangus is one of the youngest drag performers to be listed with New York's official Drag Queen Registry. He has performed at clubs in the Buffalo, New York, Toronto, and Ontario, CA areas. A reception for Michael is being planned in Provincetown on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, for August 2011."
