By:  Mz. Neeka

Mz Neeka: Before we start, I would
like to thank you on behalf of both
The U
­ rban Release and myself for
taking the time out of your schedule to do this interview.
Cornell: Thank you for having me!
Mz Neeka: Tell us about yourself.
Who is Cornell?
Cornell: I’m just a man who’s been
through the street life and wants to
share with the world my e­ xperiences.
Mz Neeka: What made you decide
that writing was something you
wanted to do?
Cornell: In school I loved to write.
It didn’t matter what it was; essays,
research papers, whatever. When I
was incarcerated a friend of mine
was writing short stories and I wanted to write a story. So, I started writing. At first it was to pass my time
and then everyone was like you
should publish your work. I needed a life changing career, so I chose
writing novels.

I WRITE IN THIS GENRE
BECAUSE IT IS A LIFE THAT
I AM WELL AWARE OF
