Poet, magician, escape artist, sideshow stunt performer, movie producer and TV producer. Shawn Ness has done things some only dream about and the rest would never contemplate.
There is only one thing left for him to do in life.... give back.
Journey to 1000 http://www.journeyto1000.org is my one man attempt to raise awareness and funds for Take Back The Night (a movement against the rape and abuse of women worldwide) in memory of Nicole Joslyn and Alan Lowrie, who were murdered 10/24/2004.
I hope to accomplish this by selling 1000 copies of my poetry book ...and yet you continue to provoke the night and donating 100% of the author royalties.
If you are willing to be one of the 1000 the estore and Amazon page are below:
