In “How to Quench a Thirst Born in the Wilderness”, Ophelia Brown is a modern Ophelia and heroine representing a woman who has been to the depths of despair, and there, reached a life affirming knowledge of self that saves her life, realizing that she is the Author (creator, mother) of Love.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write “A Life for a Life 2“?

Mike Jefferies: Again, it came to me easily with the love I have for Hip-Hop. And after the response I got on “A Life For A Life”, I went hard. I just Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Mike Jefferies, author of A Life for a Life 2 →
