I was born & raised in Richmond, VA by my mother who has done everything to make sure I was raised the right way. I have always been good with communicating in writing. My first book I remember was called "The Worst Day". I wrote it in the 4th grade at J.L. Francis Elementary School in Richmond. It won 1st place. I am a graduate from James Madison University in Harrisonburg Va, where I majored in Technical Writing. During my first semester taking Technical Writing classes, I earned straight As, something I've never accomplished before. That let me know there may be something with me writing. I thank God for blessing me with the gift to be able to write. It's therapeutic for me because it allows me to be able to express myself in a way that I never imagined.

Father, thank you for the family and friends whom helped with this journey to this point in time. Father, you said in your word that you have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. I don’t know how this will help, but this is my way of ministering.

Heavenly Father, not only do I dedicate this to you, but I also dedicate this to some people really close to me. First, my wife Christy. Thank you for putting
