Author King Diamond is a man of many talents who was born and raised in the city of Jacksonville, Florida. Amongst those God given talents include author, poet, and a certified HVAC Technician to list a few. The second youngest of 11 children his life journey truly define the saying that "every rose has its thorns. Lured by the many temptations of street life in the ghetto he soon caught his first 11 year prison sentence at the age of 18 and would continue to enter this revolving door until the age of 38, never spending a total of more than 2 years amongst society. 5 times he would gamble with his freedom in his quest to become 'hood rich and each time the end result was another trip to prison..Yet in 2009 he vowed that he was sick and tired of being sick and tired and the miraculous transformation began, and since then he's become not only a true man in totality but also a literary force to be reckoned with. In 2012 he attended TWS Jacksonville in Florida and became a licensed HVAC Technician with a diploma in Electromechanical Technology. Yet it was in prison in the year 2000 while working as a GED English & Literature and the Arts teacher that a fellow inmate convinced him to give the novel writing field a try. Manuscript after manuscript that he sent out to various urban street literature companies were rejected and deemed unworthy, to the point where he threw in the towel and the novels that he'd penned by hand began to collect dust on the shelf. It wasn't until he met Author Tameka Jones in 2014 in a Facebook group that the doors of the literary world would be opened wide for him, and that the novels that were once deemed unworthy would now become 5 star page turners in the urban fiction genre. Through King Publishing Group his first book "Blood Ain't Always Thicka" was released in February 2015, instantly winning the hearts of so many with his blood raw style of story writing.
