It's up on Amazon (under pen name JP Meads), the book I've been working on a llllllooooooooonnnnnnnnnggggggggggggg time, Power Forward: a fast-paced story about the pressures of being a basketball blue chip in a small California town. Here's the description:
“It wasn’t about the money. It was never about the money…”
Basketball Blue Chip Josh Lockett is a big deal in a small town.
He's headed to the University of North Carolina on a full-ride—if he can handle the ball, and the pressure.
Because being the hero of Oakvale, California, isn’t easy.
If J-Lock wants everyone off his back, he has to raise his scoring average, keep his 4.74 GPA, make the All-American Team… and stay abstinent.
Survival is anybody’s game.
An important story that ends with three small words, Power Forward will captivate teens, parents, coaches, and communities who live for sports—and those who don’t—by taking a hard look at the other side of high school athletics, and calculating its cost.
Here's where you can check out the cool cover and the first few pages.
Please! Email, text, tweet, Facebook: Share with all your friends! And tell me what you think of the story.
