Dashawn L. Fair is a twenty-six years old author living in Syracuse, New York. He started writing as a hobby to pass time when he did not have much else to do. After writing for a few months, he started letting close friends and family members read his short stories for feedback. The response he got back was something he did not expect. It sparked a light bulb in his mind. After getting the same exciting and encouraging response from everybody, he decided to take his hobby more seriously. Dashawn noticed how there were few urban authors in his hometown of Syracuse at the time. He figured his novels would stand out, which also put a little pressure on his shoulders seeing how his books would be judged by everyone. Accepting the challenge, he told himself, “I will write about things the ‘common’ person can relate to.” |
