Author & Speaker

Sekou Writes has had more than his fair share of lives before surviving a stroke. Among other things, he has authored several books, ghostwritten a New York Times best-seller, been included in a wide variety of anthologies, written a few regular columns, directed a documentary short film, and even authored an autobiographical stageplay. Probably what he’s most known for, however, is running his first marathon … just four months after his stroke. Yes, really. He has fancy-sounding degrees like a BA from Morehouse and an MFA in Creative Writing/Fiction. He also hosts the podcast/TV show, Get Rich 101! Sekou has spoken, performed, lectured, and taught workshops at numerous grade schools, middle schools, high schools, and colleges.
