About the Author

            William Moore was born on December 17, 1979 in New Orleans, Louisiana. At the early age of 3, he was forced into a single parent home where his mother gave him his first journal in which he wrote his first published poem in the Christmas Program of his elementary school. His poetry eventually bled into other avenues from drawing, storytelling, and the complex art of writing, staining his psyche with an unbeknownst filter, allowing him to observe the world through objective eyes. When he turned 15, William began to create alternate, less painful realities in his mind to make sense of the world along with the death of his father figure. After many years of religiously studying and honing his craft, his words became second nature. His characters developed lives of their own. His worlds grew depth and reality. And his words cultivated true underlying meaning through real experience. William was blessed to be a part of many championship teams, honor societies, and the winner of many essay and poetry competition.        His life tooks many turns for the worse having loss a child, all three uncles to unnatural causes best friend to a drunk driver, a top notch university, Georgia Tech, his wife, car, homeless on several occasions, among other incidents. But William stepped up to the challenged and finished his first novel, “Sparrow’s Valley,” with the onset of his son’s birth. From 2000-present, he has written for the late Russell Tyrone Jones a.k.a. ODB and family which caught the eye of his first manager, Denise Sirigo. Quickly thereafter, he developed a name for himself not just as a story writer, poetry writer, and a bio writer, but as a distinguished writer.

His poetry has mesmerized crowds from New York, Georgia, Indiana, California, Louisiana, and Florida. These accomplishments merely gave William the confidence he needed to broaden his horizons, writing bios for distinguished up and coming djs, music artists, producers, and corporations.

A man always willing to put his best foot forward as long as it does not trip up the next man’s efforts. With a world of opportunity and only the horizons and the infinite boundaries of his imagination and vision to hold him back, William knows that labeling himself the best is an unwanted and unsuitable characteristic for success but will never allow anyone to out work him in his journey to reach his seemingly unattainable goals. He makes his statements and allows the outside world to fill in the blanks of Will “  ” Moore.  I Will “Do” Moore. I Will “Teach” Moore. I am Will “I Am” Moore.
