Robert Cost, an author from Portsmouth, Virginia has been writing poetry, music and short stories since the age of 5. In First Grade at Tanners CreekElementary, he won second place at a book story competition. That's when he was pushed by his family to write more stories, although he failed to take heed to their advice. It wasn't until Robert was 20 and serving a 10-year sentence in the penitentiary where he decided to pick up the pen again. At the time, he was gang banging and had a lot of hatred & resentment in his heart. He thought he would never make it home. With the many trials & tribulations he was going through, he used the pen as a way of expressing himself. Almost like a form of release. His stories might be a work of fiction, but the pain, turmoil, emotions expressed within those pages are too real!
