Shawn William is a captivating, multi-talented, award winning spoken word artist, writer & content creator who has shared stages with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Jill Scott, Gladys Knight, Yolanda Adams & many others.

Being from the Oakland/San Francisco Bay Area slang & fashion are a way of life so Shawn decided to put some of his "Shawnisms" and thoughts to fabric.

We hope that you enjoy.

Sex, Love, Heartaches & Healing is a series of poems, love letters, random thoughts, short stories, flashbacks, epiphanies & realizations written by Shawn William.

The book peels back layers of male masculine energy allowing the reader to view a more vulnerable & human side of a black man dealing with lust, love, breakups, marriage, divorce while reentering the dating scene.

The book just like Shawn's live performances will take you on an emotional rollercoaster one minute busting out laughing & the next hot & bothered possibly calling for "Thigh Meat" takeout.

These kids nowadays are DIFFERENT, different. So instead of stunting their originality and expression why not let them show out "Respectfully" & fashionably?
