Book excerpt: With the award winning 187 Iz An Art our main goal was to create a story that provides the reader an extraordinary true glimpse of why youths in urban environments turn to a life of street activities. So 187 Iz An Art mirrors the reality of many urban environments without glorifying any of the events which typically take place in such a setting. We achieved this by starting the characters out at an early age to show what made them get immersed into the streets. So whether a person agrees or not with the idea of drug dealing they understood why the characters in the novel lead that type of lifestyle.--Awards: 2009 Los Angeles Book Festival Award Winner, 2010 San Fracisco Book Festival Award Winner, 2010 New York Book Festival Award Winner.
