Product description...
DREAM BIG – YOU GOTTA BELIEVE
There are some life events that nothing can prepare you for. Steve Balsamo, who grew up in Brooklyn in the 1950s, has had his share of tragedy, struggle and obstacles to overcome. He has faced the challenges of life and business with his head held up, always moving forward, and never giving up and never giving in. He’s had his share of fires, floods, strikes and a stabbing. A kid nearly dying in his arms, and narrowly escaped death himself. And of course, there have always been the arguments, conflicts and challenges that every family endures. But Steve is a survivor and a winner, and he has always come out on top. Through My Eyes is a personal example of how outlook, attitude and leveraging personal resources can create success. You’ll be inspired by Steve’s journey; his willingness to make lemonade from life’s lemons, his reliance on a strong woman behind him…and his experience with Walter, his secret friend.

author of Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

I am looking forward to our next project together. I have recommended Outskirts Press to several freelance authors in my area. Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
