QUOTES:
"My neighborhood was just so full of life that growing up, I had those stories stuck in my head." "I definitely brought some of that family background and journey into the story." "Live your life with passion and enthusiasm. This is your life; don't be on the sidelines watching it happen." "I’m all in on this when I never thought anything was going to come out of writing a book and publishing it. Now, every day I’m like ‘what can I do better?’" "I don’t think I’ve really slept in the last two years because as I’m trying to sleep, I see the scenes and have to jump up to get the words on paper."
