Rise & Read Free Press is a small, author-created publishing label with the purpose to share stories and expand perspectives through reading and expression. Our books are soul touching fiction and non-fiction tales of struggle, perseverance, overcoming temptation, greed, and more.
We all have a story to tell, and a connection to each other. Together, we can Rise Up as we enrich each reader’s consciousness.
For many many years, Harold Phifer’s childhood living conditions remained a secret, even from those who thought they knew him best. No one knew about his past growing up with a mother who suffered from mental illness; a greedy, controlling aunt; a mindless and spoiled older brother; an absent father. It wasn’t until an explosion in Afghanistan that his memory blasted back into focus…
Charlie Mo is incompetent, reckless and has a penchant for gold-digging women.
