This folder featured in this picture to the left contains a lot of my childhood stories. Some of those stories like The Janitor were written on the word processor at my tutor’s office.

Other stories like the Gunman series were written on a typewriter and those Gunman stories are relevant today. Gunman was a childhood neighborhood cop game I played with my friends in my Elementary School days. I played a character named Billy Coatman. Billy Coatman was trained in all the martial arts and fighting styles in the world, and had a lot of weapons training by the CIA. He later was blacklisted by the CIA, and after he took care of the members of the CIA that blacklisted him he became a New York Homicide Detective. That was the original Billy Coatman origin story while playing the Gunman game! I wrote Gunman stories about what I played out in the cop game as a kid with my friends along the line of that original Billy Coatman storyline.

Present Day Detective Billy Coatman can be found on the pages in the Simply Priceless Universe Novels! Billy Coatman in those novels is an Atlanta Detective, and is one of the Main Characters in the Simply Priceless division of the LT_Realm! The Billy Coatman backstory is different of course. Billy Coatman in Simply Priceless  is trained in martial arts at a Mixed Martial Arts academy as part of the new backstory, and he is a military man. It is a story that would remind you of Martin Riggs’s story in the Lethal Weapon Franchise. In fact the original Simply Priceless Novel has a Lethal Weapon Theme with partnering up the character Simply Priceless with Detective Billy Coatman in a Forced Partnership! Martin Riggs as you can see was kind of like my hero growing up!
