Bankz, Author and Publisher started “Hoodtailz Publications” in 2004 while incarcerated. Featured book “Playing Women from the Inside” was inspired by real life experiences of Convicts as well as Mr. Bankz. It was written to give women awareness to the game that has caught so many of them off guard. Mr. Bankz was asked the question why he used so much graphic language and his answer was simply, “to give the reader a feel for the inside.” Mr. Bankz had to re-release his first title “Playing Women from the Inside,” because when he was released 6 years ago he knew nothing about software. However, Mr. Bankz self-taught himself, and now he runs a profitable business surpassing the expectation of many who counted him out. Mr. Bankz’s motto is, “it ain’t the setback it’s the get back.” Society has written off many ex-cons due to their repetitive behavior, but if you need to see the second chance in the flesh, Mr.Bankz is that example. Mr.Bankz has seen it all in his lifetime on the Streets of Chester PA, but made the decision that he was not returning to the lifestyle that kept him behind bars for most of his life. At age 11 he embarked on the street life and continued his criminal career into his adult life. After his last conviction he was sent the Federal system and it was there that he realized that either he had to change or spend the rest of his life in prison. Going to school for business and real-estate, he was asked a question by his teacher, “Do you want to be a business man or a gangster?’ Mr. Bankz opted for a business man remembering what was said to him after he was sentenced, “If we ever catch you again you will never get out of jail.” Mr. Bankz reunited with his childhood passion, writing. He began to write about his life stories from the streets knowing that, if he continued down the same road, the next shot at freedom would come in a form of a body bag. Realizing that all the game he was taught was for nothing, because when he came home there was no 401K waiting nor a roof to put over his head. After having a conversation with his former cellmate from Miami Brother Calvin, he realized the game as it is called, caused him to spend half his life behind bars. Mr.Bankz studied himself carefully while incarcerated and came to the realization, that there is Constant and Change.view less
