Manafest Releases Book 'Fighter: Five Keys to Conquering Fear and Reaching Your Dreams' in Stores Oct. 7

Rap/rock vocalist and three-time Dove Award Nominee, Manafest, just completed his first book, "Fighter: Five Keys to Conquering Fear and Reaching Your Dreams," which will speak about his personal life and the very real situations he has gone through.

The book comes out next month on October 7, and was a long time in the making as he began fleshing it out over one-and-half years ago while on tour for Fighter.

"I don't know about you, but I love books," said Christopher Greenwood aka Manafest in a press release. "I could point to different books in my library and tell you how they've changed my life. With music I only have a few minutes in a song to share my heart and sometimes even less after a show interacting with fans. So with the book 'Fighter,' I thought I could really give my fans more of me - to hear where I've come from, and how I've become a fighter."

This book came to fruition thanks to a Pledge Music campaign, which will also allocate five percent of the pledges to World Vision.

The book delves deep into the emcee's personal life as he speaks about his father's suicide, and a skateboarding career that never was due to injury. He then found his way through music and he rest is history.

"Whether it's family, personal, or professional, it's been a fight,"he said in a release. "I've had the willingness to bear pain to get through all this, and I'm winning now. 'Fighter' was made to keep bringing a light to people; keep fighting."

Manafest recently release new track, "Overboard," to radio and digital outlets. A new album is being worked on in between tour dates.
Manafest began to gain the music world's attention after his single, "Impossible," with Trevor McNevan blew up in 2006 off of his Glory album.
