Conquering Adversity One Step at a Time by Larry Stansbury
Stories that are funny, powerful, and true.
A personal message from the author:
I share gripping accounts of how I overcame adversity in my life as a Black male in America and insights on how others can do the same. This book is a collection of essays sharing stories of adulthood, overcoming friendships, rejection, and many more.
These essays are both memoir and creative nonfiction. After everything that has happened to me, I decided to write this book while at home during the pandemic and share tips on how I conquered adversity. Some of these stories have never been told before, and I know readers will be able to relate, regardless of their race, because as humans, we have the ability to inspire and empower each other.

My profession is online marketing and development (10+ years experience), check my latest mobile app called Upcoming or my Chrome extensions for ChatGPT. But my real passion is reading books both fiction and non-fiction. I have several favorite authors like James Redfield or Daniel Keyes.
