I write what I like to call wake-up fiction or conscious street reality. My books could be made into a reality show because they are real I deal with the streets on the level that shit really goes down, but I show how the most desperate situations can be overcome thru faith in the creator and self-education.
You could say I'm the Kanye West, The Common, Mos def, Nas, Jada Kiss, Talib Kweli of the writing game.
I'm starting a revolution of critical thinking street scholars. I'm creating an atmosphere for a new human rights movement, not civil rights, because that was a big mistake, you can't have civil rights if you don't have human rights. My writing will get our youth to learn how to think and the most dangerous thing to oppression is a free will thinker.

Jonathon Parker and Coltrane Jones have a history. The best friends and business partners have been involved in everything from murder to blackmail, whatever it took to rise to stardom they did. Now that they're sitting on top of the world, heading up the two largest and most infamous strip clubs in the nation, the duo has the world at their feet. But now they both want out for different reasons.
Coltrane is tired of the drug game, the seedy underworld lifestyle that playas only dream of. He's hoping to settle down with the new woman in his life. Jonathan, who is now a top sought after criminal attorney, is ready to get out of the game, too. But that's because he has his eye set on the Governor's Mansion. And now, with the backing of major political players, he just might get it. There's only one catch. Jonathan has to make a major coup… bring down his best friend the notorius MVP, Coltrane Jones.
As two longtime friends go to war, parallel lives will collide, shocking family secrets will be unveiled and the game won't truly be over until one of them is dead.
MVP is an emotional rollercoaster ride that will have you rethinking your own friendships.

Look! Finally, a book of muscle for boys who are at-risk. No more gangs, guns, drugs,alcohol, violence, peer pressure! Excerpts on: www.helenbrewer.comwww.bbotw.com
I found out 2 days ago that my brother was diagnosed with terminal cancer, although it's upsetting, I'm okay. My sisters are a mess, they can't stop crying. I'm okay with that too, crying releases pressure. It's good to cry every now and then. But, I told my sisters to break from crying and to pray. Prayer is a powerful healer and outlet. I talked to my brother and advised him not to be down. That he has CANCER, but cancer doesn't have him, and as long as he is alive there is always Hope. Just stay in Faith. I also made sure he was right with God. I advised him not to become mentally sick because depression and stress will kill you way faster then cancer. I told him to stay positive, because the body is designed to heal itself, and if we are positive and don't get stressed or depressed over the disease or our circumstances we free the body to do the work it was designed to do, and we aid in our healing. There are so many disease out there today that are terminal, incurable, threatening, and crippling, but when one hardship happens, something greater and even better usually follows, but the grief, sorrow, and depression of one loss sometimes consume our recieving the greatness to come, and we miss it. Whether my brother makes it through this or not. I believe he is healed because sometimes healing comes even in death and I was blessed to be his sister and even more blessed to know he is at peace. I'm not giving up, just looking up. Whatever happens, I know that it was God's plan. And, either is a MIRICLE, because he will be totally Healed or he will be totally Healed. I'm hoping that anyone dealing with any of these diseases understand what I am saying and that it will help you or a loved one, because it is not Cancer that is the enemy, it is how we deal with it, that is the enemy. The" FEAR FACTOR, is beatable. " Our brain ,the mind and central transmitter can protect, defeat, assist,and with-stand anything. We have the POWER! AG
Someone once told me that they were lonely, eventhough they were surround by people they loved and loved them. Being lonely isn't being alone. It's not being able to be alone with yourself. Know one can take away loneliness, they can suppress it, become a temporary void, but they can't get rid of it completely. Only the lonely can do that for themselves. I can go anywhere and be in any place and I am never lonely. Because as long as I have me, I am never alone. I love me, who I am and what I have become and becoming. I am happy! I believe that people need to learn how to love themselves, to spend time with themselves and to become happy with themselves. People pleasing and keeping up with the Jones can get you in trouble and in debt. Keep up with you. Please you. Learn to do little things that are pleasurable to you, that lift and feed your spirit. Learn yourself and how incredible you are and how blessed you are to have you. What would you do, without you? Think about it. Then, take yourself to dinner, draw a romantic bath and have an extraordinary time entertaining you. You are the perfect date, so date yourself. Then, when you do date someone else it will be mind blowing, because you will have had a lot of practice enjoying an evening, because you already have done it many times with the most important person of all yourself. Use yourself, learn yourself, know yourself, love yourself. You deserve it! HAPPINESS!
