The Evolution of a Book Title! Psychological War: The Battles of a Young BlackMan

Single is My Disease and Everyone Has My Cure

I have realized that being single in your 30’s is deemed as a disease to most. As soon as you meet people you haven’t seen in a while, a family function damn it happens in my doctor’s office. Are you married yet? This tends to frustrate me because if you look at my left hand next to my pinkie you clearly see the obvious answer to the question.



The looks of pity and often looks of confusion are soon to follow.



The fact that I have a decent job, own a home and have a degree… Continue

Calo was a good, strong, caring young man - that is, before evil consumed his mind and took control of his life when he joins The Circulary, a group that sells moonshine to students illegally.
