At 4:49pm on March 15, 2009, John R Williams-THE Author said…: John R Williams was born and raised on the Southside of Chicago, Illinois and is the eldest of three sons. As a product of a single parent home, John discovered a deep appreciation for the arts at an early age through music, poetry and writing. As a child, he was exposed to bittersweet life growing up in the inner city. In 2003, John began writing informally. He wrote in a journal daily trying to perfect his writing style. His goal was to master both comedic and dramatic writing. John received no formal training in literature other than reading urban classics and masses of poetry that he usually found at book fairs and in local libraries. He studied the works of urban novelists and allowed his ability to be influenced heavily by these innovative authors.

Over time, John developed his own unique style. John used his shortcomings as a child and experiences as a young adult to shape his edgy writing style. The stimulus for his literary aggression is oftentimes revealed in his works. If asked, John would tell you that the goal of his writing is to entertain, educate and assist with the human spirit's progression. While pursuing a writing career he also maintained a prominent position at a large Telecommunications company. His hard work brought him success as a Sales Executive. John soon learned how to sell ideas. Over time, his profession afforded him the means to truly make a go at professional writing.

In 2004 John focused his efforts and began to explore writing. Within his first year writing professionally John self-published two titles. His first work; a children’s short story and coloring book about the bond between father and son entitledDaddy and Me was a huge success!

His second work, a book he co-authored with his best friend was an immediate success. C.E.L.L Cityfolk Electronically Livin Life: The Secrets We Hide in Our Cell Phones was an engaging endeavor with a strong storyline about three best friends living, working and playing in Chicago that expose the hidden world of wireless treachery.

In 2006 What Could Have Been? The Saint, The Sinner and The Attemptwas released. It was his 1st independent self-published novel. Books simply flew off the shelves! now in 2008 John is set to release his 1st debut novel under a major publishing house .The novel is affectionately titled The Reunion. In stores now!!!

John participates in charity and community events on a regular basis and attributes his love for hip-hop and the entrepreneurial spirit as his main motivators. In his free time, John can be seen frequenting just about any Neo-Soul Café, poetry reading or urban hotspot in any major city. Please support John’s efforts by purchasing copies of his books today!!
