Cheekie: A Child Out of the Desire is a tale of hope as it chronicles one boy's journey through the Desire Project, a violent community in the 9th Ward section of New Orleans where he was born and raised. Endorsed by the late Dr. Maya Angelou, Cheekie brings it all to life: the abuse and the love; the neglect and the nurturing and how one boy overcame violence and poverty to achieve great success.
Clarence Nero is a native of New Orleans. He grew up in Desire Project, a violent and impoverished community in the Ninth Ward. Nero attended Howard University and wrote his first novel "Cheekie: A Child out of the Desire" at 27 years of age after graduating from Howard. His first novel "Cheekie" was endorsed by the late, Dr. Maya Angelou who said, "Nero is a promising young writer." In 2003, Nero graduated from Louisiana State University MFA Graduate Program. He currently resides in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where he teaches English at the Baton Rouge Community College.
