My second book is about a boy who has Asperger's Syndrome and is bullied to the point to where he shoots up his school. I have divided the excerpts from it into three parts: Before, during and after the shooting.
I was born and raised in the Boston area but have lived in various places over the years.
I have lived (and survived) a very interesting life. My writing is taken from my real experiences and in some cases things I am yet to experience. I became a writer to show people (and myself) that your upbringing and past should not hold you back from reaching your dreams.
