A. L. Burgos (Anthony Luis Burgos) lives in NYC in the gritty area of Harlem. He never ran the streets of Harlem so he found the joys of writing. At the age of 10 he began to write and he discovered that it was an escape from the outside world. YA drama and mystery thrillers was his passion and he wrote his first story (not published) titled "Forever Friends" at 11. His dream was to become a famous author one day so he could be able to move his mother out of Harlem. Anthony has self published his first YA drama "Sec4rets" and it is getting rave reviews from readers claiming its a edge of your seat ride and amazing, while at the same time tackling real life teen issues. He is working on some new books hoping to be released in 2013.
