Explanation During Books Dreamseller
Skateboarding used to be my life. When I was fourteen years old, I was discovered by Bucky Lasek and Tony Hawk and was on my way to turning pro. I toured the country, signed autographs, and had my photo in skate magazines. Then I got hooked on heroin and threw it all away.Soon I was living in an abandoned garage and begging for spare change. Ripping off my family and friends meant nothing to me. I was a dreamseller, pushing the fantasy that I was a recovering addict. Anything to get my precious next fix.
This is my story of struggling to survive on the streets and battling with addiction in rehab. It's a story of trust I betrayed and trust I had to earn back. It's also the story of my friendship with MTV and Jackass star Bam Margera. I would have died a junkie's death if not for him. Bam convinced me to write about how my addiction destroyed my career-and nearly my life.

I've read this book repeatedly and I still find it so hard to put into words just how much it resonated with me. The stories make for an extraordinary read, but knowing that these events are only a small insight into the world of addiction makes it very hard hitting. Drug addiction is a curse, and the conclusion of the book shows that it is not always a clear cut ending. There will almost always be pitfalls, relapses and heartbreak. The knowledge that Brandon Novak kept pushing forward even
