As a professional editor and proofreader, I have worked on thousands of pages of manuscripts at various levels of writers’ abilities. Each book gives me joy to work on, taking it from a manuscript to an actual sellable book. When James Welcome came to me with his manuscript of “Boy 2 Man A Waha Story” never having written a word professionally before this, I was intrigued by the subject, and then I saw his raw writing talent. He depicts his childhood living conditions with such stark clarity that you feel that you are with him, the whole time. As he grows up and starts dealing drugs as a child, you want to grab him from the pages and rescue him from his life.
This is a Not-To-Be Missed Story, and I look forward to working with him on his following stories. I whole-
heartedly recommend it.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Rothenberger
