He was that writer that sat silently for the 1st three weeks of his first fiction workshop because he wasn't sure how his peers would respond to his brand of fiction. Finally, for fear of failing, he finally read aloud in front of the class. After reading what would later on become the first two chapters of “Water Flows Under Doors”, they labeled him the truth.
After the 1st print run of Water Flows Under Doors, he disappeared for years as his responsibilities to his young family and real life situations dragged him away from his dreams. In that time, his lost a lot, and gained a little. However, he never stopped writing. It had become such an integral part of him that he needed it as if it was the air he breathed. His pen, the paper and his soul had formed a symbiotic relationship that could not be broken.
Finally, after readers of “Water Flows Under Doors” demanded another novel, he decided to re-release his 1st novel and make preparations to unveil his 2nd titled, “Open Spaces”. Since then, he’s made his presence felt at book fairs as well as on the urban blocks throughout his birthplace, the Empire State of New York. Quickly he is making a name for himself throughout the industry and his contemporaries have labeled him a “Beast” with the pen. Social networking sites wake up to see what he has to say next, whether it’s sexually charged flirtation or a vicious rant meant to maim and destroy someone who needed to be put in their place. Some comment while others are just spectators but they all read the posts and affectionately refer to him as Reem the Gully God. Open the cover, take a step inside Keith Kareem Williams, aka Reem the Gully God’s freshman debut, Water Flows Under Doors and see why. Then, after taking a deep breath, prepare for the release of his sophomore giant, “Open Spaces.”
