The Goal
I have so many reasons why I should be in @TYLER PERRY studios. First let me reintroduce myself. My name is A.Powell. I’ve written books that DONT give the typical cliche storylines unlike others. I truly stand out because of the way I LOVE twisting my cliff hangers. You’ll NEVER know exactly how my books end. My books will
ALWAYS leave you WONDERING. GUESSING. SPECULATING. Whats next. 👀🤨
I’ve always been intrigued with writing short stories from a little girl. I’ve read books like Junie B; Jones ( & the B stands for ….) yall know the rest along with my favorite favorite book of all time, GOOSEBUMPS! I LOVE that book series so much i studied R.L stine’s writing style. I remember when I did a draft on a dentist and tried to attempt to make my book as scary as his and it was truly and epic fail. I low-key gave up on writing scary books because I wasn’t there yet (I still feel like I’m not but whatever). I have ALOT of research and a lot of homework to do before I can even reach his level. His books left me scared asf ! 😂 I loved his books though! R.L stine’s writing style taught me something’s. Don’t add too much detail when writing a spooky book. Give VIVID DETAILS. Leave a juicy cliff hanger so it’ll leave a cliff hanger. I’ll be honest, I write cliff hangers in ALL OF MY BOOKS just about except my childrens books! 😂
My writing style is truly different but I’ve been truly inspired. I love the way Barbara park wrote a chapter book for the children to engage in. I love junie B; jones books. Those will definitely be in my dream house! I love me a good junie b jones book. Every book that same out, I read. Goosebumps and Junie B; Jones were my TOP 2 favorite ALL TIME books. I just feel like I’ve been inspired so much by R.L stine with his writing style. It’s truly unique, it’s amazing and it shows how in depth his mind goes when it comes to writing.
As a writer, as an author, your mind does tap into a different kind of realm. When I wrote Deception,Lies, and Betrayal…. My mind was in the form of feeling betrayed by those close to me. I was told a story by a loved one about how they had friends and the friends abandoned them and they were alone to fight by themselves. Thats also where DLB stemmed from and how it came about. I wanted to write a one and done book but knowing me and my cliff hangers, I couldn’t allow that to happen- another book was bound to be born. Repent and then PTSD .
Repent came from sins. That was my instant thought. Repent was also from playing chess not checkers. It was more so as life has a way of circling back and giving you a taste of your own medicine. 💊 Elliot had betrayed his brother whom he grew up with and eventually had to get that energy back but in a different way~ a deadly one. Right after Repent, ptsd came about. I thought about PTSD as the title because, it’s relatable. Everyone gets it from family, friends, significant others, etc. it all stems from somewhere right? I wrote ptsd because I wanted to further explain Elliot and his past. His past was very traumatic . He experienced a first love as well but had messed things up due to his poor choices and his lack of self control while on the streets. Elliot gets locked up and runs into his father, Errol. The interaction isnt too drawn out because Elliot does make a plan to escape. Yet the guard Lola whom he’s romantically involved with, is aware about his escape and says nothing. He finds out a lot once he’s back on the streets. It isn’t long until his brother has been harmed. Now he’s looking at possible suspects and it goes to his friend, Trey from hoe childhood. He goes after him. Long story short, trey doesn’t say anything~ he hasn’t confirmed or denied.
My plot twist for my books happen quite often. I love leaving my readers edging to read more. To hear more & to be filled with such emotions thst have me like “when is A.Powell going to drop a WHOLE BOOK SERIES WITHIN A DAY”? Btw thats clearly not possible but okay. You get my drift.
I have written for TWO DIRECTORS for a film project. I think it’s so much fun and easy for me to do. I learn quickly and I understand the urgency that is needed for such storyline. FYI if I hypothetically did an episode for @TYLER PERRY , I’d expect the audience to expect the unexpected.

Tyler Perry Studios is renowned for producing compelling dramas that resonate with diverse audiences, which aligns seamlessly with A.Powell’s passion for crafting unexpected plot twists and vivid storytelling. Delving deeper into the art of writing suspenseful stories, the use of cliffhangers is a powerful technique that keeps readers engaged and eager for more. A.Powell mentions studying R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps series, emphasizing the importance of vivid but measured detail to build tension without overwhelming the reader. This balance is crucial for creating a suspenseful atmosphere that sparks curiosity and speculation. Furthermore, A.Powell’s work touches on intense human experiences such as betrayal, trauma, and redemption, particularly with themes in books like Deception, Lies, and Betrayal, Repent, and PTSD. These themes make the stories relatable as they mirror real-life struggles and emotional journeys. Writing such content not only entertains but also fosters empathy and understanding among readers. Collaborating with film directors adds another dimension to A.Powell’s work, highlighting the adaptability required to bring narratives to life visually. The mention of hypothetically creating an episode for Tyler Perry further underscores the writer’s commitment to storytelling that defies expectations and delivers emotionally impactful moments. In summary, the aspiration to join Tyler Perry Studios symbolizes a milestone for authors like A.Powell who seek to elevate their narratives beyond the page.
