Welcome, Family. Yeah, you heard me right—Family. That’s what we are now. And like any strong, deeply rooted tree, we’re here to grow together, branch out into new ideas, and stand tall in this world of storytelling.
Now, let’s get something straight—I’m just a regular guy. No fancy literary degrees, no ivy-league connections. Just a man who’s lived a little, made some mistakes, and found a way to turn his life around with the power of words.
I’m the oldest sibling, a father of four, a boxing and chess enthusiast (because every writer needs a good fight and a solid strategy), and a serial entrepreneur dabbling in real estate and digital products. But before all that, I was a young man trying to make fast money in the streets. And if you know anything about fast money, you know it usually comes with slow consequences. Mine? A prison sentence.
But here’s the twist—the plot shift in my own story. Behind those bars, I discovered my real hustle. In two years, I wrote four fiction books. The Blockumentary series was born, starting with the upcoming hit, You Gotta Sleep to Dream, set to drop late 2025. They say, "Work what you'd do for free," and for me, that’s writing.
The Moment I Knew I Was a Writer
Picture a kid, digging through his mom’s drawers, probably looking for something he had no business finding. Instead, I stumbled across Never Die Alone by Donald Goines. Man, that book hit. The way he painted the streets with words, made me feel the grime, the struggle, the rawness—I knew right then, this is what I want to do. From Iceberg Slim to K’wan, Ashley & Jaquavis—these writers didn’t just tell stories; they gave us worlds we could see, hear, and feel. And I realized I had that same fire burning in me.
What You’ll Find Here
This site isn’t just about me—it’s about us. A community of storytellers, urban fiction lovers, and creative minds ready to shake up the literary world. Whether you’re here to hone your craft, find inspiration, or just kick back and enjoy a good story, you’re in the right place.
I’m rolling out three blog posts a week—Monday, Wednesday, and Friday—covering everything from writing tips to street literature deep dives. I’ll also be sharing personal stories, dropping knowledge, and keeping it all the way real. And trust me, it won’t be boring. Expect humor, expect honesty, and expect the kind of grit that only comes from lived experience.
And if fiction ain't your thing? No worries—I can talk about anything. But this? This is home for the storytellers who keep it raw, real, and unapologetically authentic.
What’s Next?
Beyond The Blockumentary series, I’ve got an erotica series spinning off in 2026 (don’t act like y’all ain't curious), plus a whole lineup of children’s books in the works. See? Versatility. I’m here to build something lasting, and I want you right here with me.
Let’s Grow Together
This isn’t a one-way street. I want you to engage. Drop comments, share your thoughts, and be part of the conversation. Who knows? The next Donald Goines—or the next Romie The Writer—might be you.
So, welcome to the Family Tree. Let’s grow, let’s write, and let’s make some history together.
Personality End Note:
