Biography

Like many offenders, I was partly raised by my mom. I never knew my dad until I was 12 years old, I am a first born from both my parents and have 13 siblings 6 from my dad's side and 7 from my mom. At the age of 17, I moved and stayed in Hillbrow where the final brick in the dam broke loose. Like most, if not all scoundrels, I began by doing petty crimes like fraud and then graduated to armed robbery of banks. I got arrested in 2001 and was sentenced to life imprisonment in 2003. Upon admission in prison I got involved in rehabilitating myself with the help of fellow offenders and correctional officials. In 2008, I registered to study marketing management and business management, I found the going a bit tough at first, since I had not seen the inside of a college or university in a long time. However, armed with the unquenchable desire for change and education, I pulled through and graduated Marketing management in 2011 and in 2012 I graduated in Business Management. I began writing in 2007 and have never looked back since.
