Bourgeois' Books

Product Details

The Crazy Great Journey is a raw, uplifting memoir of survival, vision, and the unshakable belief in the power of stories. B. Alan Bourgeois—an indie author, gay man, and literary advocate—pulls back the curtain on a life marked by heartbreak, resilience, and relentless service to others. From writing his first story in prison to founding the Texas Authors Museum, Bourgeois has lived every word of his legacy with passion and grit. With candor and courage, he recounts homelessness, loss, and rejection, but also moments of triumph, vision, and community.

This memoir is not about fame—it’s about purpose. It’s a deeply personal story for anyone who’s ever felt like an outsider, dared to chase a dream, or fought to build something bigger than themselves.
