The Soul of a Man – K. L. Belvin
This week, as we approach Fathers Day, Written Voices Blog will feature several of the contributors to the recently released anthology, The Soul of a Man.
K.L., describe yourself for our visitors.
I have been a teacher for the NYC Dept of Education for over 10 years. I published my first book titled “A Man in Transition” in June of 2008 through the publishing company I created called Bravin Publishing. I have four children and possibly more. Yes I said possibly more. I wasn’t always the man I am now. I was a man that lived his life attempting to bed down as many women as I could. Before I knew the Lord I was trapped into believing life was connected to getting next to every woman in a sexual manner. I would like to believe I am as complicated as many others feel about themselves, but I am not.
