Description: Common Memoirs

What's hustling while on lock down? Sounds like selling goods while behind jail bars. But, I call it working on a job, where you want out.

"Let That Be The Reason" you tell yourself something like, "When I make me fifty thousand, I will stop..." (pg. 76)

In "Let That Be The Reason," Pammy dates Chino up until she is 8-months pregnant. He then decides to leave Pammy stranded to fiend herself, as he marries another woman. Pammy has bills to pay but no college education, which makes it tough to find a good salary.

Vickie Stringer portrays her past in this fiction novel. The theme deals not with the love of money or the risks of drugs and sex. (Although people not familiar with this lifestyle can receive a good education on street etiquette.) Instead, the basic premise continuously revolves around the love of family and the choices for financial freedom. "Let That Be The Reason" you read this book, because your autobiography probably has a similar theme.
