About this author

Zoe Woods entered the literary scene with the release of the Blood of My Brother trilogy, a saga created in dedication to and collaboration with her husband, co-author Yusuf Woods. A history relative to those within urban communities who are enthralled by street life resulted in her husband being sentenced to prison for many years and inspired them to share their work. Having witnessed the struggles and triumphs of her husband’s life, the direction that Zoë and her husband wanted to take their project was one that would encompass realism, showing a glimpse of history and the severity of consequences that often result from being caught up in this kind of lifestyle; including the devastation endured by the families of those who are entangled...more Zoe Woods entered the literary scene with the release of the Blood of My Brother trilogy, a saga created in dedication to and collaboration with her husband, co-author Yusuf Woods. A history relative to those within urban communities who are enthralled by street life resulted in her husband being sentenced to prison for many years and inspired them to share their work. Having witnessed the struggles and triumphs of her husband’s life, the direction that Zoë and her husband wanted to take their project was one that would encompass realism, showing a glimpse of history and the severity of consequences that often result from being caught up in this kind of lifestyle; including the devastation endured by the families of those who are entangled in the addiction to street life. As she set out to enlighten and entertain, the urban series that started her literary career became one of the most talked about street novels.

The child of an alcoholic mother who was often in and out of prison during her childhood and teenage years, Zoe found solace in activities that would allow her to express herself and if only for a short time, escape the negativity that surrounded her. Entering high school she continued to practice her love for art, design, and poetry, further developing her writing later in life with the collaborative series. When the opportunity was presented for her to release her debut, Zoe and her husband gave their all for the creation of one of their most powerful and personal stories and have not put their pens down. Since the release of the Blood of My Brother series, Zoe has also contributed to the Lipstick Diaries part II anthology with a short story titled Rush: The Sweetest Sin. She continues to develop stories in multiple genres with great unique substance while staying true to her passion and delivery with what is said to be a new generation of urban literature to her readers. Zoë considers her greatest gifts and sources of inspiration; life itself, being a wife, and a mother. In addition to enjoying the time she spends with her family, she is an enthusiast of education and is an advocate for the prevention and awareness of domestic violence.
