J. Anthony Graves
The hard hitting, street-lit fictional narrative is the latest step in the evolution of J. Anthony Graves, a former rapper who performed under the moniker Von Doe. Hanging up his microphone, drawing upon the instructional inspiration of his muse Stephen King, and invoking the prowess of street griot, Donald Goines, Graves gives us his first novel Dead End. A telling narrative that captures modern day urban life with deft command and intimate nuance, it reflects the aspirations of an avid reader and writer with a keen eye for the next generation of readers and writers. J. Anthony Graves is currently scripting the next installment of Dead End as well as a book of short stories. You can find out more about the author at www.janthonygraves.com.
