    Troy aka Savage has finds himself in a state prison and is looking to do his time as quietly as possible. Most of the other inmates respect his decision to do his time by staying out of the way. He spends his time by reading, working out and watching television. When trouble arises, he is faced with the decision that most prisoners have to deal with at some time or another, fight or walk away.

    Nard J

    Hello Smashwords audience, my name is Dennard Johnson. The pen name I use is Nard J. Right now I am twenty-six years old. I first started writing at the age of seventeen. I didn't really know how to write or what to write, I just knew that I wanted to write at some point in life. My first few projects didn't pan out because I just didn't take as much interest in them. I was starting college and working full time. I joined the military, then got sidetracked even more. It wasn't until recently that I got the time to actually sit down and put my thoughts on paper and learn how to write.To get a little bit more personal about myself: I grew up in a single parent home and was essentially an only child. I did have older siblings, but they were years older than me. In school I was an all-around athlete and student, however, I wasn't great, but I was above average in just about everything I participated in. In college, I changed my major three different times. First I studied Agriculture, then History and finally Software Engineering. I enjoyed all three, but neither could hold my attention longer than a semester or two. My passion has always been writing and being in control of the words and thoughts in my mind. I hope that you all enjoy the work that I publish here and let me know what you think about it.
