To Whom it may Concern:
What do you do when you know right from wrong, and you know that what you’re about to do is deathly wrong, will most likely cost you your life and everything you love, but you decide to do it anyway?...Welcome to my world. A world where truth is filled with contradictions, where friends become foes, and everything you thought you knew suddenly becomes as foreign as the unknown. Yet, it is a world where loyalty is everything.
My new book, Loyalty Is Everything: Hurting The Streets, takes readers on an unforgettable, and at times, brutal journey of my life—a life that at the present age of twenty-six, will now be spent serving three life sentences, plus 145 years, concurrently, in a super-maximum security prison. Through raw and gritty details, my story chronicles my childhood in the streets, my rise to become one of the most feared and highly respected gangsters in America, and my ultimate downfall. It is a story of unfailing loyalty and the fragility of the human spirit. But at the heart of this powerful piece of literature lies a cautionary tale that will serve to conjure thought provoking questions for every pair of eyes that dares to turn each page, and spark heated debates from coast to coast.
Loyalty Is Everything, is a book that is unlike most street/urban literature stories today. What sets this book apart is my ability to bring the reader into my world and expose them to a code and a culture that is ruled by laws that most ordinary citizens have never been privy to. This book breaks a code, yet stays allegiant to the streets. My words reveal, yet remain loyal to who and what I am. It is a gritty, authentic story that explores the universal issues of loyalty, culture, family dysfunction, and social consciousness.
The current word count of my manuscript is 114,159. I intend to help promote Loyalty Is Everything, through my website, blog, and social media, as well as through nationally recognized media outlets that have featured me such as; Don Diva magazine (Issue #45, of which I appeared on the cover that sold over 1 million copies), Conversations magazine, YouTube, and several regional newspapers and websites. I have also networked with other authors and readers who will help to spread the word.
In closing I would like to thank you for your time and consideration of my project. If you are interested in reading my work I welcome you to contact me using the information below. I look forward to hearing from you.
