Short Biography
Ttomajani was born in Jamaica to a household of eight. He was a deep-thinking child whose education started with his first spanking, strict parental discipline, and the bestowed wisdom of elders from his grandparent’s rural village. After high school, he attended Community College, graduated, then migrated to the United States. Ttomajani spent eight months in New York before enlisting in the United States Air Force, and at his first duty station, he met and married a fellow service member name Tosha. Together and apart, they deployed and served, and after twenty-one years of military service, they retired. The couple settled in New Jersey with their three children, and from there, Ttomajani writes after labeling himself a ‘Civil Write Activist.’ The Skin Sin Sagas are his first three-book series and will not disappoint.

AUTHOR’S PERSPECTIVE
By Ttomajani
Civil Write Actitist
My writing goal is not to impress the
reader with flowery words or gain attention through provocative statements.
Instead, it is to expose the sickening and damaging effects of a racist's behavior, invalidate their efforts to perpetuate racism's
ideology, highlight the immorality of their bigotry, and challenge their normalization
of bias and cruelty. I aspire to help the victimizers identify their moral
inadequacies, inspire impartiality, and promote goodwill. Most of all, I sincerely
hope that the unmasking and understanding of racism will influence a rise in
love, empathy, truth, inclusivity, and tolerance.
Written language can recreate, reshape, and be repeated to become us. We should use the many proliferations of writing to teach motivate, reposition, and climb the ladder of our shared humanity and inspire awareness and mutual racial understanding. Reading improves our lives because organized
words clarify thoughts to increase knowledge and wisdom. It is true that reading about racism, cannot change everyone, but it may help some racists to appreciate the value of righteousness, judgment, and equality. Thus, in
addition to writing, reading also inspires and enlightens people's
consciousness, and for this reason, I write.
