Based on the violent life of a public school educator, I Wasn't Born a Teacher is the story of love and redemption in a world full of sin and despair. Kabel Garcia teaches English in Los Angeles. While proposing to his fiancee in a park, he is drawn into a fight with three crazed thugs looking for an easy target.

In the heat of battle his wicked instincts take over, but is his own past full of blood, drugs, and alcohol about to catch up with him? Can he survive his life long enough to enjoy the love he has finally found after years of loneliness?

Travel into the mind of the romantic psycho and those who cross his path: his partners in crime that run the gambit from petty theft to felony assault, a teenage girl dealing with abuse in her home, a drug dealer waiting for his missing girlfriend, a vigilante bent on avenging his brother's death, and a twisted serial rapist. These and many more come to life in an all too real way in first person narratives built on savage poetry and ruthless prose.

This is the next step in urban fiction. Brace yourself for the novel based on a true story, I Wasn't Born a Teacher.
