Where did you grow up, and how did this influence your writing?
Central Florida. Town named Ocala. Known for its horses lesser known for the flourishing historical black commerce that was elevated by inequality. The influence is that it would be cool to see more black people in spaces to create opportunities for those with similar backgrounds. I write in duality. To one day create opportunities and options for under served youth of color and to share my gift with those in search of inspiration, creativity, and progress.
Who is your favorite author?
Because the nature of books I like and I am willing to find another, but James Patterson. Especially the Cross series.
I am open to detective murder mystery books by other authors. Please suggest some.
