Some may think that it all began when a rogue group of corrupt NYPD pigs kicked in my door. Their minds were racing with murderous thoughts, and their guns blazing with evil intentions. They attempted to take everything away from me…even killed the one I loved.
But, I trace everything back to the day that I lost my parents at the tender age of thirteen, to a crazed drug addict on a PCP fueled rush. That day, my innocence was lost. That day, I met the man that would forever change my life.
I will forever be defined by the choices I have made from that point in my life forward. Murder, Mayhem, Revenge and Redemption. Before you judge me for what I became, I only ask that you take the time to fully understand what I was forced to become. I didn’t ask for this. It came looking for me. This is the story that Five-0 didn’t want you to know. The untold truth that forever corrupted my innocence.
-Nathan Jones

My Interests

HERE'S WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT NAN...

"Nathan Jones and Joseph Hayes both became orphans on the same day by a senseless act of violence. Introduced in an orphanage by their mentor, Mark Carson, they bonded becoming "blood brothers". Both suffering from pain and survivor's guilt, this book depicts a story of unconditional love, sacrifice, manipulation, strength, courage, disappointment, betrayal, and loss of monumental magnitude. This book tells of how two middle class boys turn into magnificent men triumphing where it would seem hopeless and impossible.Moses Miller is a genius who's unique style of writing masterfully tells a story that reads like a movie. I only have two complaints. The first, you simply cannot read this book on the train or on a bus because you will miss your stop engrossed in this book. The second, this sequel to this book is taking too long. Congratulations Mr. Miller, this book puts you in a league of your own."
--MADAME PRESIDENT, BOSTON

--ASHLEY, VIRGINIA

Officer Mark Carson decides to connect the two young boys, hoping to build a bond between them, and give him a taste of something he's always wanted, a family.Readers will be bemused as they try to understand how an eager, soon to be father is quickly tossed into a death match. While the events of present day draw you in, Nan revisits his past, which in all actuality leads up to what currently surrounds him.Nan's corrupted innocence leads to a rebellious redemption that triggers the loss of love, lives and prospect. The untold truth is quickly unfolding with Nan placing the missing pieces of the puzzle together, but will he be able to connect the dots in time to salvage his own life?Indisputably, Nan: The Trifling Times of Nathan Jones is by far one of the most action-packed thrillers that I've had the pleasure of reading for 2006. Beginner Moses Miller has definitely reset the bar for my expectations and I'm actually thirsting to read Nan: The Game of Trife. In search for something creative, with pandemonium, the settling of scores and some liberation, then this is the read for you."

"NAN: The Trifling Times of Nathan Jones as Told to Moses Miller is a fascinating book that exposes the life and times of a young thug named NAN, who is driven to "murder" by his beliefs in corrupt forces of the NYPD. He justifies his crimes with what he calls "The truth"and dares all to understand how he came to be a murderer. A sad scene depicts his mother's plea to hear from her son. Nan's diary reveals the inner workings of his near corrupted-mind before all breaks loose. The book is a well written action-packed urban book that holds your attention to the end. The sequel, "The Game of Trife" is sure to be a hit. Nathan Jones is a character readers will want to see depicted on the big screen for his brutal honesty , but watch out....he's dangerous. Rated Gold-*****5 Stars"."."
