Bestselling Author of The Salty: A Ghetto Soap Opera, Why Me? and Why Her? Series. Aleta Williams writes to entertain and inspire. She grew up in Watts, California, a small city located in South Central Los Angeles. She resides in Seal Beach, California, with her husband and three children. Writing for her is a hobby, a stepping stone to where God is taking her. She believes her calling is to become an inspirational/motivational speaker for teens and women who struggled with an abnormal childhood just like her. At six years old, Aleta witnessed her mothers' murder. With no one to help her get through the tragedy, she used anger as a defense mechanism to help her deal with hurt, pain, and loneliness. Aleta later joined a gang, which led her to become a teen mother. Aleta does not believe being a teen parent is the norm and doesn't condone it, but she considers her firstborn was God's way of saving her life. It wasn't until she gave birth to her daughter that the fear of leaving her alone in a world she thought was cruel that she began to change her life around. Aleta finished school. She became a banker for 11yrs until she took her gift to write as an outlet to enjoy life. Twelve years later, Aleta is a ghost writer; she directed her first movie based on her debut In The Hood, formally known as Zipcodez. She also has several books and collaborations.
