One On One with Best Selling Author Deja (Joy) King

Born in Toledo, Ohio and raised in California, Maryland and North Carolina, Deja King represents a new breed of writers producing young, hip and sexy novels that introduce readers to street life in all its complexity. Having worked and studied in such high-profile institutions as The Terrie Williams Agency, the Lee Strasburg Theater Institute and Click Radio, King has rubbed elbows with celebrities, athletes and artists. Opting to take a break from industry challenges, King changed direction to explore something even more wonderful -- motherhood. King welcomed her son, Logan Michael, into the world in mid 2001. It was during this time that she discovered her love for writing. Deja King is the author of the Triple Crown Bitch series.
