When did you first begin writing ? I began writing at a very early age of nine.   Starting writing short fiction stories, I learned a lot about my creativity and vivid imagination.   Then at the age of 15, I started writing poetry which one of my friends in high school motivated me to do so.   Poetry has been my true love of writing since then.     When did you finish your first book and what’s the title?

I'm the "different" one of my siblings, I always go against the grain, very strong willed. I've been through hell and back in my life, was even in a relationship with Satan himself twice and trust me, it was not pretty either time. My solo novel is about the first relationship I was in where I was abused by the man or shall I say boy who claimed he loved me, the novel that follows, which will be released next April is about the second relationship I was in, both relationships ended with me being abused, physically, emotionally, and mentally. I've grown a lot from the messed up relationships I was in, they have strengthened me beyond my wildest dreams. Writing started out as an outlet for me, I would keep diaries and notebooks filled with my thoughts and feelings and as my life took certain turns I began

Tell the readers something about yourself: Angel Mechelle, Angel, Ang, A whatever you decide to call me I’m always the same girl. I love writing, music, reading and all things creative. I’m a hopeless romantic, die hard Lakers/ Kobe Bryant fan. I’m the mother of two, a son and daughter who are my biggest loves. I was raised an Army brat and I’ve traveled all over the world. I have many quirks and irks…I tend to ramble and I love entirely too hard. I love meeting new people, taking pictures and selfies. My favorite rapper is Styles P…um…let’s see…I guess that pretty much sums me up in a little nutshell. I’ve been through a lot of storms but my life has finally come full circle.   When did you first begin writing? I first developed a love for creative writing in middle school. It continued throughout high school where I dabbled in poetry, wrote short stories, long love letters and articles for the school newspaper. My first published short stories, Caught Up and Thug Passion
