Trudy W Schuett writes "The DesertLight Journal is gathering material for a book to be published later this year on domestic violence. This book will focus on the currently underserved people affected – the male victims, female abusers, serial victims, and those addicted to violence.
We’d like to hear your story, and also to hear how you went about seeking help; if you did seek help, what happened if you did, and if you were able to find what you needed.

Submissions need not be of professional quality. We know not everybody is a writer, but that shouldn’t stop you from telling us what happened to you. Just do the best you can. We’re more interested in truth than a polished presentation. Submissions chosen for the final publication will be edited for quality.
Length is not a major concern, but we’d ask that you keep your story under 10,000 words. If your submission has been previously published, please make sure you still have the rights to the work.
Submissions should be sent in the body of an e-mail, and include your name, mailing address, and phone number. This information is for verification and clarification purposes only, and will never be used for anything else.
You identity will be kept entirely confidential should you prefer we do that. If you have a website or blog related to this issue, and would like to have this information included, we can do that as well. Let us know your preference in your submission.
Deadline for submissions is May 30, 2005. Send to: dva2004-at-desertlightjournal.com.
This is an activist/fundraising project. Look for further details to be announced at the DesertLight Journal.
All participants do so as volunteers. Any proceeds from the book will be donated to the Domestic Abuse Men’s Helpline."
