Personally, I never understood the power of having books written about your experience - whatever that experience may be - until I wrote one and started hearing from teens.

I was just cruising around the streets of South Beach and got scouted. Two ladies stopped my parents and said, 'This kid needs to try the sport of inline speed skating,' so I did and I remember falling in love with it and the thrill of racing.
