Welcome To Real Life
Real Life Publishing in Cedar Rapids is my independent author brand sharing authentic urban fiction and Foundational Black literature. I discovered my natural writing gift in prison, and I now write raw, emotional stories for adults.
Featured Books
The Trenches Series (Part I)
A gripping urban streetlit novel born out of real life.
Loyal to None (Trenches Part II)
Part two of THE TRENCHES, where loyalty, betrayal, survival collide.
Foundational Black Americans
Powerful non-fiction on codification, unity, identity, and real life strategy.
Authentic Voice
I first picked up the pen inside a prison cell, trusting a gift that nobody taught me. I write straight out of lived experience, pulling from street life, quiet regrets, and hard lessons that shaped me. Every book starts with a scene that already feels like it is moving, so you feel pulled in fast. I write for Foundational Black Americans who want real life stories, unfiltered voices, and characters that feel like people they know.
Committed to Raw Truth
I use my books to tell authentic urban fiction and Foundational Black literature grounded in real life, raw prison storytelling, and unfiltered Black voices that speak straight to the heart.
Meet The Man Writing
I first learned my gift for writing inside a prison cell, turning pain, memory, and street life into stories that feel real. Step behind the pages and hear how it all began.
