I am a country boy born and raised in the small town of Cleveland in the great state of Mississippi. I am the second of three children born to my loving mother. I have an older brother Terrance and a younger sister Tequila. Growing up there were two things I was passionate about, one was football and the other I did in secret which was writing. I played football because I loved the game but deep in my heart I always knew I wanted to be a writer. Writing was always my outlet and as I got older I found different ways to hone this talent. While in college I continued to play football while also perfecting my craft of writing. As I got older I began to feel freer with sharing my gift with people through open mic nights. I now live in Memphis and I am father to five children four of which are girls and the reason for this book.
