testimony, The Set Up… In his early twenties,
Carl moved to Atlanta, Georgia, where his life
was affected by his sexuality, HIV/AIDS, religious
rejection, racial discrimination, mental illness
and the stigma associated with all of the
above. After having a vision in which
he was imbued to write a book and
through life altering circumstances,
Carl manages to pen a riveting story
that is certain to magnetize and inspirit
the reader as you live each moment
with him.
In 2008, Carl was the subject of a four
part series in the Arkansas Democrat -
Gazette newspaper entitled, “ The
Long Way Home." The series was
honored with the 2009 Mental Health
America Media Award for Excellence
in Journalism. With his life now a
drama unfolding to a national
audience, Carl anticipates and
documents what is yet to come.
"Everyone has a testimony and I must
tell the story," Carl expresses with conviction.
"Are you ready to be a witness?"
