Larry Wilson, Jr is living proof that just because you wind up in jail doesn't mean you have to fall prey to its darkness. He is an enigma, a success, and the year 2009 will promise to bring him unparalleled success and make him a house hold name. Four years of childhood abuse molded him into the writer he has become. His ability to write emotional characters has won over his loyal readers. The absence of his father led to several failed relationships that became the pinnacle of his explosive writing. He co-authored and co-edited an anthology called "Voices From Within," released on World AIDS Day in 2000. The book was selected for Body Positive Magazine's Book of the Month Club in 2001. In January of 2008, he unveiled his first book, The King of Erotica: The Throne, a collection of unapologetic sexual short stories with a message, under the T.K.O.E. Publications imprint (owned by Dapharoah69) and co-run by his nieces Aliyaih and Sunjaraih Hernandez-Wilson, ages 8 and 6. He promoted his works by foot on Miami, Florida's South Beach and the sub cities in between. The book was reviewed by Naiomi Pitre, author of "Broken Vows." He was interviewed by Sheri Elfman and featured in the Express Newspaper, interviewed on MySpace's Blog Radio Show by actor/author Lamont Carey (Def Jam Poetry, The Wire) with high ratings and interviewed by Dewey Edwards on GBMNews. His books won over old and new fans and was the focal point for more than 45 Book Clubs across the country. Dapharoah69 admits that some of the characters, written from the male and female points of view, bare similarities of himself. His writing gives a deeper understanding of why some people have the type of sex the way they do. The book also touches on taboo topics seldom discussed in the black community. To pigeonhole his books as reflections of his counterparts Zane, Eric Jerome Dickey and E. Lynn Harris would be a mockery of his talents. He writes from the gay, straight, female, and male points of view with devastating accuracy. With the rise of The King of Erotica, a name given to him by his fans, the genre now has a male face and he does it raw and uncensored. Dapharoah69 is a man who doesn't hold anything back. He painstakingly built his legacy from his mother's living room with a pen that was running low on ink and a pad. He was jobless and broke. He sacrificed a lot, was scrutinized for his works, and went through a suicidal phase...yet he never gave up on his talent. Publishing houses denied his books, telling him he was a talented writer but the nature of some of his stories turned them off. He didn't take "no" for an answer. Getting a distributor, he did it himself. And the rest is history. He put himself on the cover of his books to symbolize that he stands behind his work. With over 567 Number 1 Blogs on MySpace in the category of Writing and Poetry, he was a sensation before his first book was even released. Betrayed by a former publishing house, he directed his anger towards master storytelling and the end result was simple: He just signed a major contract with a New York Times Number 1 Bestselling author who appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show. His blogs generated over 500,000 views. He was CLIK Magazine's Top 25 Sexiest, Most Eligible bachelors in October of 2007. His take-no-prisoners attitude has reflected in the response from his die-hard fans. He doesn't care who likes his writing or not. As long as they GET SOMETHING from it then he is satisfied. The characters in his books are raw, real and blunt. He writes to express himself, and that's the only impression he'll ever leave. Don't put orientations of his legacy. The King of Erotica is a force to be reckoned with.
