A Player's World Manual: Wanna Be A Pimp?

by Ivory Wilson

Almost every black man has thought of being a pimp once in his life. No two players see the pimp game the same way. Everyone has a jigsaw puzzle form in their minds with unfilled spaces about how the game is played. When you finish reading this book, I will have filled them in for you. If you are happy with your life the way it is now, don't read this book.

About the author

My name is Ivory Wilson. I am a hopeful author and I believe that my story would be of interest to readers.

While my base of operations for the past 11 years has been the corner of 7th and E Streets NW in Washington , DC, I have recently been trying to “get discovered” in NYC.

So here is some of my story from Texas to cowboy to pimp to jail to DC and Street Sense and a large community of supporters. At the age of 15, in Beaumont, Texas, I began breaking wild horses with my daddy, his name was also Ivory Wilson. He was a rodeo rider in the black rodeos down in southeast Texas. As the age of 16, I began riding bulls o the ranch and then went on to ride in the local black rodeos. At the age of 17, I joined the Army to shop out to Nam. At that time I was sent to Fort Polk in Louisiana. There they announced that no more men would be sent to Nam. I joined so I could be like Audie Murphy in famous westerns and war movies of the time. I became one of the few men to get the nation defense metal EXPERT rifleman. When I shopped out to Fort Riley in Kansas, little did I know that my life was about to change. My heroes were cowboys and I had been pretty insulated my whole life, until Kansas, where I fell in the wrong crowd. I had never seen a pimp before, never knew who or what that was. But in Kansas bad news seemed to find me. My "friends" and the clamoring of a war-twisted town meant that I was shortly introduced to a pimp. That night change my young life for the worst.

I am much older, wiser, and still as engaged in life as ever and I would like to share my stories with you and let you see my gift of storytelling and my dreams for my future work in the community. I’ve written a short story childrens book title Dreams wonders and Travels. Received a letter from the White House Michelle OBAMA the Family. Received a big endorsement letter from a 5th grade charter school teacher.

I won this book on Good Reads. It's a short book at 56 pages. This starts with him in the army in the state of Kansas. This is where he meets the man who teaches about pimping . I wish it was longer loved the way he wrote the book . Hope to read more of him.

I won this book on Goodreads. An interesting book in the life of the author's pimping lifestyle. I was left wanting to hear the author's story a little more as this is a very short book. I am sure that the author speaks the way he writes which shows who he is and the people around him and the culture that surrounds him. Love the pictures on the front and back cover, I think it tells a lot about who Mr. Wilson is and his player-type persona. A more detailed longer book would be engrossing as this is a world that few understand or even knows about.
