Corrupted Chapter 11

This is what happens when our options become limited . . .<br /><br />Omar Tyree, a New York Times and Essence magazine bestseller, an NAACP<br />Image Award and Phyllis Wheatley Literary Prize winner, and the originator of<br />contemporary “urban classic” novels that have spawned a national wave of<br />“urban/street literature,” hits home again with Corrupted, a timely and<br />innovative serial ebook.<br /><br />In an era where hundreds of aspiring writers play an anxious game of<br />musical chairs to entice a shrinking group of New-York-based book editors to buy<br />their freshly printed manuscripts and grant their dreams of becoming<br />nationally published authors, Vincent Biddle reigns supreme.<br /><br />Coined the man with the “golden eye”, in the past decade, Vincent, a<br />native Bronze, New Yorker, has hand-picked, edited and positioned more than a<br />dozen bestselling books from his stable of authors, while generating more than<br />a hundred million dollars in revenue for the Williams & Klein Publishing<br />Group.<br /><br />Vincent can’t miss and can do wrong, as he rises to a powerful senior<br />editor position with the publisher. But as he rises, so does his ego, creating a<br />reckless and eccentric craving for personal and professional<br />experimentations.<br /><br />Vincent asks himself, “What will these writers all do to become bestsellers<br />and remain in the public limelight?”<br /><br />With a tight circle of volatile authors in his midst, their every weakness<br />soon becomes bait to be used against them, while their power-dunk editor<br />assumes a position of absolute authority. And things fall apart around them.<br /><br />Corrupted, a serial ebook of aspirations, fame, fortune, sex, shame and<br />scandal, as Omar Tyree uncovers the dark, passionate and sinister side of the<br />American publishing industry.
