I'll tell you what this book isn't about. It's not about self-help and I'm not preaching to you. It's also not for children. " Funk to Funky" is about my life and some people and events that I encountered along the way. I had some realizations like "you can have all the funk in the world and not be funky enough" or " you can't make this stuff up." All you can do is try to come out the other side of the experience better than you were before. I also took some photos of myself at this time of my life rather than have someone else take them. I took the photos the same day I wrote the text that corresponds to the photo, so I was "in the moment." Funk to Funky is a metaphor for "in to out," "up to down," or "here to there." We all take a journey in life, this is a little bit of mine.
