Been Had Paper The Rise of Tha Fam

Been Had Paper is about a group of best friends who were all poor growing up until Oyah decided to turn things around and got into the drug game. In no time, he became knee high in the game and form a family called (Tha Fam). They believe Loyalty is not a word, it's a Lifestyle and they all vowed to live that lifestyle. Tha Fam quickly became the most powerful family in Manatee and Sarasota County, running the entire 941 area code with guns blazing. It's either you are with Tha Fam or against them. Oyah finds himself going up against two very powerful gangs from the city. Everyone wants the Throne, but there could only be one Family. Tha Fam ended up saving a group of girls from a Sex Trafficking Ring and that's when Tha Hyenas was formed. Together Tha Fam and Tha Hyenas expanded Oyah's Empire by taking over the surrounding cities like Tampa and Orlando, but then the unthinkable happened when someone close to Tha Fam crossed the line of no return. Casualties crippled Tha Fam…..Will Oyah and Tha Fam beat the odds stacked against them or will they lose everything that they have worked for to their Opps? In these pages, you will see friends that came from nothing and became Millionaires. You will see how greed turn people into snakes and everyone's loyalty will be tested to see if they live up to what they claim to believe. The audience that I'm looking for, is everyone from the Urban areas of the World, where you have to do things you really don't want to do in order to get what you want. Men and women who can relate to what the characters of the books are going through. Life struggles, people who have dealt with loyal and disloyal people, cheating men and women. People who knows both sides of being rich and poor. All the envy that comes with success. I want to reach the streets and speak for those that can't and have the ones that can relate to at least one character in the series.

My name is Rafael Sanchez. I'm from Manatee County, Bradenton, Fl. I was born in the Bronx, NY. I've been thru alot in my life. Growing up in a home with a lot of money then losing it all to the D.E.A. when my dad went to prison. My mom tried to maintain the same lifestyle that my dad had provided but with two sons, she just couldn't. At the age of thirteen, I got tired of being the only kid on the block always wearing the same sneakers and things of that nature. So, I decided to link with my big homie and served as a worker at his Trap. When he got indicted by the D.E.A, I was fourteen turning fifteen, and his arrest left a open market in the drug trade, so I linked with a friend of mine and got my hands on some work and we took off from there. I turned 10Grams into 1008Grams in less than 60Days. My best friend came home from a Juvenile prison for breaking into houses and cars so I gave him the phones and some work and he fell in love with the hustle and not wanting to give the phones back, so I let him hold them down while I took my money and went to the Bronx and found me a plug with better work at a cheaper price. I then brought it back to the hood and put all my friends on, forming a Family called Tha Fam. My books are about how Tha Fam gained Power and became the biggest drug crime family in Manatee County. I have written two books so far, but its going to be a six book series called, (1)Been Had Paper/Tha Rise Of Tha Fam, (2) Been Had Paper/Get Richer or Die Trying, (3) Been Had Paper /Tha Hyenas, (4) Been Had Paper /Tha Resurrection, (5) Been Had Paper /Loyalty in Blood and (6) Been Had Paper/Life after Tha Feds. I feel like I'm a good fit for the company because I have a story to tell and I want to share it with others. I'm just trying to change my life around and write about the streets now instead of being in it.
