About the author
As a young boy I often found myself writing about this subject or that one. Raised in a household filled with any sort of periodicals. Readers Digest, Motortrend, Variety, and The Encyclopedia Britannica were often found with my head buried inside, reading something that caught my interest. Growing up as the son of an author and composer, BB Johnson AKA Joseph Greene (Together Brothers, Across the Alley from the Alamo) and the son of a trailblazer, Marthella Wilson Greene (Chairman of the Board Cal Tech Federal Credit Union, Audit Coordinator JPL). With a strong foundation, I believed that writing was in my blood and began to fulfill my dream as an author.
With a wide range of interest, I was drawn towards cartels, crime, and drugs. I didn’t complete my first serious undertaking until I was in my early teens. Subsequently, I gave my prized literary achievement to my father’s friend, Saul David (Director; Logan’s Run and Fantastic Voyage) to get an honest critique. He was intrigued but wasn’t overwhelmed. I will never forget his words. “I want to be able to taste the characters,” he exclaimed. That critique sent my life into a whole other direction, putting down the pen in the pursuit of entering the world that I wrote about.
I spent years involved in all sorts of illegal activities. Soon I found myself in and out of jail, in an endless cycle that there was no escape from. The only thing that was constant throughout my journey was me writing.
“It’s only on the brink that people find the will to change. Only at the precipice do we evolve.”
-John Cleese, The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008)
With a lifetime of stories, ideas, and emotional peaks and valleys, I write.
With a since of pride and purpose, I write.
With a desire to achieve, I write.
