Cornelia Gail
Publisher info
Cornelia Gail was born and raised in the Mosby
Court Projects of Richmond, Virginia. There she
would learn the life she now writes about in her
novels and screenplays; My Testimony Before &
After Grace, Juvey, H8ters and now her newest
book, Facebook the New Look. Cornelia Gail’s
gritty urban tales speak truth to all of those
who read them. Gail’s style of writing is true
to life. She takes you straight from the comfort
of your armchair and the warm glow of your
reading lamp, into the cold, merciless glare of
the streets of the ghetto. Using the language of
Mosby Court Projects to telling effect, she
reveals the stark realities of the life of under
privileged African Americans. She is able to
convey the despair, the cynicism, and yet, the
hope and faith of the people of her world. Her
books are about the choices that young adults
are compelled to make; and the consequences of
making the wrong ones. Having risen above her
own past of dropping out of high school, and
having her first child at the age of 14, Gail is
the walking testimony of what God’s redeeming
grace can do. Now, as a college graduate, a
record-breaking sales executive, an
entrepreneur, President and CEO of Girls In Da
Game Publishing, The Ground Up ENT and founder,
Executive Director of S.A.V.E. M.E. (Sexual
Abuse Violates Everyone: Memories Everlasting),
Gail is now the poster child for over
achievement, and a role model that many young
girls now want to emulate. To add to her
credits, Gail also directed, produced and filmed
her own new Reality T.V. Show, that is currently
being shopped along with other show ideas. She
is currently in the process of finishing up a
script for a feature film based on her latest
novel, “Facebook the New Look.” She has filmed
and directed several music videos and reality
t.v. show episodes. Her show has over 100,000
youtube hits to date. Gail, just recently
finished studying Cinematography at LACC Film
School.
