The pre-promotion tour has started for the upcoming book release of Eden’s Garden – A Road of Triumph and Battle, which will be available in 2024.

Seven King’s memoir takes a vulnerable look into the experience of a young independent who went through a maze to fulfill an idea that was bestowed upon him. The idea came during one of the toughest moments in his life and came with mockery, tests, and gossip even in his own community. Being a passionate individual and fighter, he overcame all tests that would have set the average person back. However, this idea catapulted him into the seasoned and well-skilled creative director he evolved into.

This book will be a three-part manuscript: an autobiography of the experience of developing the project, an advice column for those transitioning or thinking about it, and a fictional novel. The book is a piece to give the true insight, wisdom, motivation, and creativity of the brand of Eden’s Garden and more understanding to the man behind the vision. Please join Seven for a night of pre-celebration through intimate conversation and the reading of the first 5 pages of the novel and Q&A with the director.

There will be open and honest dialogue with Seven while considering the questions many of us wrestle with: How do we build a project from scratch? How can we discover strength and community inside our differences? What tools do we use to address feelings of self-doubt vs purpose? What do we do when it all starts to feel like too much? Why is it important to follow your own gut when reaching for your goals? These will be some of the topics discussed at the promotional book tour stop for Eden’s Garden. Come join us for two hours of reflection, conversation, and celebration for Eden’s Garden – A Road of Triumph and Battle.
