Meet Dainnese Jackson

7/13/2016

​Hey everyone mostly a lot of you know me but to the ones that don't my name is Dainnese "Lil Dai-Dai" Jackson born and raised in the hood of San Diego California " Southeast." Before I became the phenomenal woman I am today, I admit I was a hard head. I was always in and out of trouble and hanging out with people who I thought was my friends. As I got older I got very cautious who I called my friend. My circle of friends is small.
 
After I graduated from San Diego High year of 2003, I enrolled straight into college. I majored in Criminal Justice.

Writing has always been my passion since I was a young girl and becoming a book author was my desire as I got older. Before my dreams turned into reality, for many years I was suffered from "Epilepsy" complex partial seizures. In 2010, I got tested twice at UCSD hospital in La Jolla to see if I was a candidate to get brain surgery to prevent and stop my seizures. Because of the grace of God, I found out the second time I got tested to confirm where my seizures were coming from that I was a candidate. January 24th, 2011, at UCSD I had an eight hour brain operation on my left temporal lobe including hippocampus which was causing me in the past to have seizures. Since my brain operation I have been seizure free five years.
 
What made me pick up my pen again and get serious about writing was when a guy from my past that I took to my grave came back in my life in 2010 when I just stepped out of a rocky relationship with my ex boyfriend who I was dealing with since I was 17. I knew deep down dealing with the guy I took to my grave was a sticky situation but I took the risk. I didn't realize until it was too late and things turned into a huge thunderstorm and got very ugly when he got released from prison in 2011 to where he messed with multiple girls; he had me stalked by one specific chick who I used to run the streets with and he ended up messing with. This specific chick she always wanted the ingredients to be me anyway. Things got so hot that the guy and this chick both snitched on my mom and got her fired from the Sheriff's department (paperwork don't lie). So going through that and the emotions made me write; and reading books by Wahida Clark, Ashley & JaQuavis, Kiki Swinson, Cliff Johnson, and Brandi White also motivated me.
 
 
This year of 2016, my heart said sign with book author/Publisher Racquel Williams and April 5th, 2016 my book dropped. When it first dropped I got tagged on Facebook how my book went on the best selling list on Amazon. My next goal is to continue to write more books and continue to write my autobiography based on my life and brain surgery and turn my story into a movie. In addition, I want to create my own lip gloss, perfume line and TV show with my twin cousins Sherice & Klanice.
