Autorenporträt
Cornell Hurley Jr. does not see himself as an author. He likes to think of himself as a man who has found a way to express himself through written words. Although he is currently serving time on a twenty-five-year prison sentence, he refuses to consider himself an inmate. For over seven years he has not allowed his current situation to hold him back. "The Concrete Jungle" has only challenged him in ways that have made him the man he is today. Today he stands a published author, a loving father, and a man that is not afraid to express how he truly feels. It's only natural that he began writing while confined. Writing is a lonely occupation where rejection is the norm, a feeling he knows too well. Unfortunately, he cannot rewrite his wrongs for which he was convicted. However, starting with "The Concrete Jungle Bears No Shade", he can begin to change the narrative. Mr. Hurley is a man who does not live by society's standards but a man who creates his own.
