Tell us about your book!
My book titled “H.es In Da Hood.” Is basically about an urban apartment complex that is full of drama, envy, and jealousy. The book basically visualizes the Ghetto statistics of black females all living in one complex with the same agenda, some hustle hard, some work hard and some just have their hands out looking for a quick come up whether it’s having a child for a paycheck, trying to be the next Queen pin or securing a bag by being wife up by a baller. One of the three will always come out on top and that’s where the drama comes in at.
