As a former gang member and drug dealer who's been incarcerated since February 23, 1999, for a 1998 murder, in which he was sentenced to Life Without the Possibility of Parole (LWOP), he began writing "seriously" in 2010 in an effort to change his life around and "make something of himself," despite incarceration. Mike Enemigo is a recognized authority on the topics of prison, the street life, prison gangs and street gangs, drugs and true crime. In an effort to help prisoners, street hustlers and the youth avoid the traps of crime and prison, he's written several self-help and how-to books that show how to improve oneself, navigate prison and struggle successfully, and make money legally. Though Mike Enemigo may physically live somewhere inside a California prison cell, his mind and soul are elsewhere: seeing, studying, learning, and drawing inspiration to tear down suppressive walls and inspire the culture by pushing artistic boundaries.
