Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I have written one book so far, there will be many more to come. I grew up in New Jersey, I always wanted to be a writer since I was a teenager. I always had a creative mind so I finally wanted to put it on paper. I started reading at the age of four years old. Around the age of 11 I started reading true crime novels because that is what my mother read.

What are you working on now?
I am thinking about writing a biography about myself, I lived a hard life with a con artist for a father who was always in and out of jail, I put up with a lot of abuse growing up, when I was a teen I was addicting to drugs and drinking, I stop everything all on my own with out no help at the age of 20.
