I was born in New York and moved to Connecticut at the start of high school, graduating after a series of stints at various schools. I then attended a semester here or a year there at several New England universities, struggling with the normalcy of traditional conventions. But it’s high school that left lasting impressions. As with all of us, these were growing years, learning about myself and others, exploring what life is about, pushing the boundaries society puts on us, and learning where I fit––and often DIDN’T FIT––in the grand scheme of American society.
Taking artistic license to the
limit with the wild parties, the high school pranks, the underground music
scene, brushes with the law and, of course, the brawls! I
wanted to write a book that young people would have fun reading. As a kid, I
loved books, but was turned off to reading during high school because the
novels were totally irrelevant to my life. So I decided to start with the
important social issues of growing up––with a bunch of crazy and often painful
stories about teenage kids. The end result was Leech Mob: A Novel about a Connecticut Gang.
I was having problems with Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble so please order the Leech Mob Novel through the products page at www.leechmobnovel.com so I can continue to support myself and you will definitely get a copy of the book without problems or delay. www.leechmobnovel.com
Or check out the first two chapters, read as an audio book on Youtube: www.youtube.com/user/LeechMobNovel
I want the youth to know that I love them and I wrote this book for them. Hopefully, they will benefit from the experiences of Kelly Hayes.
