Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I am Hezekiah Morris, author of Restoring Hezekiah: Me and Only Me, The Player in Me, Remember Them Days and Changing a Generation. I was born and raised in Appomattox, Virginia. I later moved to Philadelphia, PA to fulfill my goals. I didn’t come from a privileged family but that didn’t stop me from becoming a motivational speaker so I can enlighten and empower troubled youth. In my past life, I struggled with drug abuse. During my journey, my faith in Christ has blessed me with the ability to help and encourage others who have dealt with some of the same issues. Writing gave me hope and another chance at life to walk in my purpose. I didn’t want to use my former addiction as a crutch. Instead I took my life lessons and turned them into determination and hard work. After writing my first two books I decided I wanted to be an entrepreneur. Traveling to many states attending Universities, Colleges and ample book signings pushed me to want more.
My goal doesn’t stop at me being an author.
