Sherman, who fans know as "P.J. Victor," her pen name, says her autobiography reveals how her faith in Jesus Christ helped her through her journey.

Although it's available for sale, the official release for "3,000,452 Ways I Survived My Life," is Monday.

“Although this book is an autobiography of my life; it is also a vehicle for those whose childhoods have been traumatized and therefore have turned to addictions to numb the pain,” P.J. Victor said. “I know this pain, for it almost destroyed my entire life; but I am now free and while relating to the reader; my life and its dysfunctions, I desire to pass on the keys that brought me the peace and joy I now experience.”

Here is the release from PublishAmerica, Sherman's publisher:

Frederick, MD May 5, 2011 -- PublishAmerica is proud to present 3,000,452 Ways I Survived My Life by P.J. Victor from University Place, Washington.

Have you ever tried to navigate in a large new city without a map or GPS? One cannot manage to find what they are looking for without guidance or direction. Many wrong roads and dead ends can place us in environments that cause us more hurt than we can possibly imagine. That is how our lives are, and especially after trauma, we need Jesus Christ as our confidant, our guide, and our protector. Ultimately, if we continue to try to survive it alone, we end up bitter and in despair. Most of us, if under the black cloud of pain, do not realize that if we but seek Him, and ask for his help-He will not desert us, but instead comfort us with His unconditional love. 

“Although this book is an autobiography of my life; it is also a vehicle for those whose childhoods have been traumatized and therefore have turned to addictions to numb the pain,” P.J. Victor said. “I know this pain, for it almost destroyed my entire life; but I am now free and while relating to the reader; my life and its dysfunctions, I desire to pass on the keys that brought me the peace and joy I now experience.”

“It has been an extreme pleasure to work with this talented and dedicated author,” said PublishAmerica Public Relations Director Shawn Street.
