This piece of writing is mostly for myself. I want this to act as my journal. I've always tried to see life from others' perspective. I think it's time to see it from mine. This can act as a rough draft of my life. If you're very nosy and want to know how someone else lives the real life, feel free to read it. It's raw, it's unfinished, it's my outlet.Complete
Yeah Maaan I Was Lit!
From dorm rooms to a prison cell... This book captures my two years at Savannah State. My high's and my low's. I went from trying to join a frat to facing two life sentences plus 40. Ain't no cap in my rap either! This story is lagit, raw and real I make jokes it's fun and funny. But it carries a message. I want people to read to learn from my mistakes, learn to live your truth. Be yourself. Embrace what God gave you, because in a flash you can lose it all.Complete

TAYLOR'S PUNISHMENT: LIFE WITHOUT PAROLE
BECAUSE THERE IS SOMETHING HOT ABOUT THE THOUGHT OF THE YOUNGER TAYLOR LAUTNER IN PRISON... When 18 year old Taylor gets sentenced to life without parole in prison, for a foolish mistake, he has to learn to adjust to and accept that he will spend the rest of his life in prison at such a young age. While it is far from easy Taylor surprises everyone by how well he comes to terms with his punishment and makes the best of it NOTE- This isn't going to be a story with a lot of violence, punishment fantasies or BDSM or anything. I have that in some of my other stories. I've decided to do something different here. When people get sent to prison the loss of freedom is the point of the punishment, not to be sent there to be punished more, to be sent to stay in a building and not allowed to leave is the main point.And not to leave ever until death is very tough. How does a young man come to terms with such a thing? Boredom is also a big part of prison so how will Taylor keep himself busy and fill the time? So i thought it would be interesting to write a story about how a very young man copes with a life sentence and somehow make it a positive storyComplete
