Truth being said, I spent the first 40 years of my life in silence when I really wanted to scream. I was silence about my depression. I was silence about the fact I didn’t feel good in my own skin.
Now, 16 years ago, in 2008 most specifically I got tired of caring all that extra weight. It was making me sick and I needed to change. So I took a dive within and when I turned 40, 12 years later, things started to make sense, so I put it all out in my autobiography released on Halloween 2021
Writing my autobiography, marketing and selling brought me a lot of lessons. Not only in the mental health department but over all lessons. I grew a lot the last 3 years. I grew in so many levels. I grew spiritually, mentally and physically I am finally comfortable in my own skin.
Consequently my art grew, and also the need to talk about things I learned that not necessarily fits it a song or comic book. So, I guess I am writing more books besides art and music because the reality is, the sh!t is deep, and as I learned in life: if you really want to be understood the best way to do it through writing.
Punkaste,

Ps: Picture taken while writing this blog. The main reason I write books, comic books and music is my kids! Luke was sick, so he skipped school.
