Street Pharm Paperback – July 1, 2006
Take high school. A waste of time. Nobody there taught me what I needed to survive on the streets....
Ty Johnson knows survival. Since inheriting his pop's business at sixteen, Ty's developed smarts, skills, and mad discipline. The supply game's in his blood. And life is pretty sweet when you're on top.
But one slip -- or one serious competitor -- and life turns ugly fast. Suddenly, Ty's got to rethink his whole strategy. And for the #1 dealer on the streets, strategy is not just about staying ahead. It's about survival.

About the author
Here's my Autobio:
YOU KNOW THAT KID? Who wanted nothing more than to curl up with a book and shut the world away? I wasn’t that kid.
MOVIES WERE MY PASSION. Especially the dark, violent ones I wasn’t supposed to watch.
BOOKS CAME LATER. Once I discovered that books could be thrilling, action-packed and crazy romantic, I was hooked for life.
I DOZED IN CLASS a lot because I stayed up late writing stories of my own. Still, I managed to get my work done, and I went to university to study English. But:
SHAKESPEARE WASN’T MY THING. Neither were most of the classics I had to read. So I became a History major because what really excited me was real-life drama.
SHAKING THINGS UP was always a hobby of mine. So when I heard of an opportunity to teach in Brooklyn, New York, I jumped at it. I went to an interview and signed up on the spot.
I WASN’T STUPID. I knew teaching at an inner-city school notorious for violence wouldn’t be a cake walk. But I’ve always thrived on a challenge.
ALL THAT DRAMA gave me plenty of material, and I started writing books for teens.
AFTER SOME WILD ADVENTURES in New York City and a brief romance with then-struggling actor Channing Tatum, I returned to Canada. Which is where:
I MET MY HUSBAND and had two babies. And I got a job teaching at an alternative high school.
OKAY. So the Channing Tatum part isn’t true. I can dream, can't I?
AS I WRITE THIS I’m working on my 9th book.
AND THAT’S MY STORY…for now.
