The Rabbit in Me: A Memoir of My Seven Years in Prison - Inspiring True Story of Redemption & Personal Growth | Perfect for Book Clubs, Prison Reform Advocates & Self-Help Readers

This book is about my life in prison from 1985 till 1992. Seven years. From when I was 24 years old till 32 years old. More than half was spent in Federal joints, the rest in State penitentiaries and hoosegows. When I was released at 32 years old, I had spent 25% of my entire life incarcerated. And fully half (50%) of my adulthood. Those critical years (24-32), when one is usually learning and growing from life experiences and relationships, were suspended for me. Put on hold. Slowed to a grinding halt. Literally non-existent. Stunted societal development, for sure, because I will never get those years back. But they were years that literally changed my life for the better. It was there that I learned about my true inner self. Who I am. What makes me tick. What makes me a happy person. Looking into the mirror, in a small 6x9 cell, every day for over 2,500 days in a row. Truthful introspection, with nowhere to run or hide. It was in there that I made the decision and commitment to a life of making music.Along the journey, I befriended and hung with some pretty unsavory and interesting characters. A lot of this book is about them. And just surviving. And battling the rabbit instinct deep within me. The need to run, run, run. From my captivity. ____________________________________________Captivating, raw, intimate, and authentic.
