Meet Tongela White (Columbia, South Carolina)

"If at first you don't succeed , pick yourself up and try again"
​
Born and raised in Columbia SC, after many traumatic events I found myself behind bars at South Carolina Department of Corrections and it was there I learned to love myself. That love turned into writing and here I am. Has it been easy? No it hasn't. Has it been worth it? Yes it has. Writing has given me a safe outlet and I enjoy penning stories that are real, earth shattering and joyous. My work is not done and neither am I. They say I'm the underdog but we always win.
