I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

All that I can say about myself is that I am a survivor! I have been through the fires of life, but that’s what all about, LIFE
When it seemed like suicide was the only way out, I kept the faith and continued to live. Rejection had me living in fear and it caused issues of loneliness, depression, poverty, sexual addictions, procrastination, emotional distress, and pessimism. My father was (and still is) inactive in my life, my mother forced me to be homeless, and my maternal family allowed other people to slander my character. In December 2003, After being rejected from my family, I prayed to God to ask him what would be the next part of my life and said one word "Houston." I knew what He meant. So on September 3, 2004, I made the 28-hour trip from Philadelphia, PA to Houston, TX. Their was under the leadership of Dr. Ed Montgomery and Lady Minister Saundra Elaine Montgomery (Pastors of Abundant Life Cathedral Church of Houston, Texas). At ALC, I got a deeper understanding about my life and its purpose. I was very active in reading and applying the Word of God to my life. I would never gotten this type of teaching being raise under the Pentecostal/ Apostolic-Faith doctrine. Due to unfortunate circumstances, I left Houston in October of 2006 to come back to Philly.
Now, I look at what have gone through it has made me stronger. It pushes me to do more and go forward without them. I am misfit. I’m passionate about become a better man, not only for myself, by for my community. I know that I will be the first millionaire in my family. I am starting a few businesses (real estate investment/ ownership, copyrighting, restaurant franchisees, etc.). I am currently member of New Covenant Church of Philadelphia, under the leadership of Bishop C. Milton Grannum,Ed.D, Ph.D, and Reverend Hyacinth B. Grannum, D.D. There my understanding for the Word of God is growing and ministry in life is being fulfill. I also attend Pastor Paula White's Life By Design Empowerment Center in New York City. I have been called to the ministry of education and I am taking courses at Delaware County Community College to get my Associate in Arts (Liberal Arts).
I’m very diverse person. I love all of God’s children, meaning we are God’s children. The only people who are driven in life to be about something. I’m networking to other young adult/ African-American fiction readers. I am also a “bookalcoholic.” I have read over 100 books and I own over 150 books. So if you share the passion for reading as well as writing as I do, then let’s be friends.
I’m a young adult novelist as well as an inspirational singer/songwriter. I’m working on my first book that should be released soon. In the meantime, read my stories to get a feel for my writing style and let me know what you think.

My Interests

I occupy my time by doing something constructive. Whether it’s working on my books, reading other books for entertainment/inspirational purposes, building my businesses, ministering the Word to someone, giving back to the community, traveling/ shopping with my (god) daughter, or just taking some quality time for me. Every minute of every second, counts.
