Brandon J. Amos

I’m a 33-year-old Mulatto Man from Clarksville, TN. I truly believe I’m a man with unlimited potential that I used to be afraid to tap into because I looked at success as weakness. I once thought life was all about being “in the streets” or “keeping it real.” That way of thinking only led me to numerous stints behind the fence from a very young age until now. The streets and other people’s opinions are no longer my priority. I now crave success in every form because I want my children Maliyah, Dsmetriya, and Marzell to know their father’s more than a state #. I’m all about making the most of my time. I’ve written 27 Urban Novels, over 250 poems, and 30 plays. I am the pen and the pen is my escape from these walls.
