Introduce
yourself and tell me about what you do.
My full name is Justin
Joseph Adkins and those closest to me call me “JJ.” I am currently 40-years-old
and a husband to an amazing woman, Brandy. We have two kids and although they
are not my biological children, I love them with all my heart. I have a
master’s degree in multiple disciplines and currently work for a Fortune 500 company
as a Business Analyst. Most obvious to an average person though is that I am a
individual with a disability, and severe limitations. Having suffered a
traumatic brain injury from an assault, it has taken a great deal of physical and
mental toughness to get to where I am at now. This is why I am proud to share
my story with the world, because I hope to give others inspiration and belief that
it’s not impossible to move beyond undesirable situations.
Tell
me more about your journey as an author, including the writing processes?
My writing journey has been quite tedious due to my
limitations because I am only able to type with one finger, and I literally
move like a “snail,” actually I take that back. A snail might move faster than
me! Therefore, this book took me four years to write but during the process I
did manage to complete a master’s thesis, and finish my educational journey. I
don’t claim to be without imperfections, though, because some may like my
writing style, and others may not. My book is meant to be an easy read, and I
don’t try to glamorize anything. I share my own flaws as well and nothing is
sugarcoated!
Tell
me about your Book (that you want to talk about)
My book is a story of perseverance and it touches on
numerous social topics that I have either endured or been involved with such
as: drug addiction, homelessness, bullying and violence, consequences of a gang
member lifestyle, family and friendships, relationships and love, Christian faith,
disabilities and so on!

This book is a must read as you will laugh, cry, and
cheer! Not only will it bring out a whirlpool of emotions, but it also proves
that nobody is perfect, and everyone makes mistakes or bad choices! The most
important thing is that you pick yourself up and try to do your best to make the
most out of a bad situation. NEVER GIVE UP!!!
Quotes/oneliners from the book
No matter what type of family a person comes from, with a strong family
unit, they can get through anything.
Never say something is
impossible.
Once an addict, always
an addict. It’s how people combat their cravings that define a person.
A thought without action is just an empty thought.
However difficult life may seem, there is
always something you can do and succeed at.
It matters that you don't just give up.
--Stephen Hawking
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. --Jeremiah 29:11
