Good Day Everyone,
I wanted to give everyone an update on my upcoming book title “100 Years, A Journey to End a Vicious Cycle.” I am a first time author writing a nonfiction memoir about the continued cycle of prison within my own family. When I was a teenager I was involved with drugs and the life of the streets. I ended up spending a lot of time in prison. My dad, younger brother, a few cousins, and myself have all been in prison. We collectively wasted over 100 years in prison. There are a number of people with multiple family member in prison. This is a serious problem that needs to come to an end. I will share my experience of dealing with this as well as my journey to bring this cycle to an end. My goal is to prevent others from experiencing prison by making wise decisions. I was released from prison ten years ago and have made a number of positive changes in my life. I now wake up in the morning with the attitude of wanted to set a good example for others to follow.
