From Burning Blocks to Building Blocks tells Will's story—how he got into the life of
crime at the tender age of twelve by stealing and burning cars... to gradually more
extreme and violent crime. After multiple arrests during his teenage years and a stint in
a juvenile detention facility, at the age of eighteen he was finally locked up for twenty-
years for multiple violent crimes.
Once in prison, Will's true struggle began—the one for survival. From the daily grind of
prison life, to regular gang warfare inside the penitentiary walls... not only did Will survive,
but upon his release he made a promise to his mother: he would rebuild his life and
make it a great success.
