Produktbeschreibung

The fictional novel Real Life is about a young male adult whose entire familys life changed when their beloved father was inexplicably murdered on their front porch. The main character, Real, being the new man of the house, must do what it takes to support his now broken family. He decides to embark on a strenuous journey with selling drugs, thinking that it was the best way of survival in Chicago. At first, the lifestyle change brings him and his family sudden riches, but then Real gets into trouble with the wrong people. How will he be able to handle all of lifes unforgiving pressures thrown at him because of senseless gun violence? A certain twist will be revealed with the sequel to my hopeful hit Real Life. I, as the author, wrote this story to entertain the issue of street violence. I feel that this terrible epidemic has gone on far enough. I try to explain how gun violence alters lives foreverthe lives of the families affected and their friends around them. I also try to tell a heartfelt story that will hopefully move everyone enough to want and embrace change. Change we so desperately need.

Autorenporträt

My name is Shareef Abdul-Salaam, and I was born and raised throughout the rough and rugged, yet illustrious state of Illinois. I lived in the hard-core city of Chicago and then voyaged to the peaceful but bizarre suburbs. I had many successful years in school, receiving my highest education when I graduated from high school. I ventured into college but fell a little short and was not able to obtain a degree. I have a wonderful, intelligent newborn son. He is very special to me, although I rarely am able to see his smiling face. I endured everything and anything you can think of, except being shot or stabbed. I love watching sports like football and basketball. I ritually watch WWE Monday Night Raw every Monday night. I love to be kind and generous. I believe everyone is special in their own way. I am ready to take my life and career to greater heights. I decided to become an author to direct our youth and young adults in the direction of peace and nonviolence. I feel I have what it takes to lead and assist in our future of change.
