This is not fiction but is based on actual events that the author has experienced and lived through himself.
The author, Andre Gilchrist, was born in a middle-class African American family with a mother, father, and brother (all of whom are deceased now and have been deceased for quite). The author wants to emphasize that whatever he has gone through and the things in the past he might have done should in no way be construed as a shortcoming as his parents’ fault. The author in no way came from a dysfunctional family. He came from a loving household where his parents were married the whole time until their untimely deaths. Their only concern was to provide a life that would be better for their two young sons than what they had to personally endure.
The author, Andre Gilchrist, was given all the opportunities in life a child could every possibly want, need, or desire. The author was afforded luxuries—such as being sent to a basketball camp in the summer and being sent to a private high school, where the author never took advantage of—and now can see the errors and misguided behavior of his youth. After entering the military and his life constantly going a downward climb to degradation, the author finally reached rock bottom. The author reached a point where there was no turning back, and he made a decision to change his life around. Being a high school dropout, he entered college and went from that stage in his life to achieving a master’s degree in political science. To learn more about the author, I invite you to go to his website at http://www.notjustawriter.com. There you can read about all of his present-day achievements, acclamations, degrees, and awards, and there is also information there on some other books he has penned.view less
