I, McGavock “Mac” Reed Jr., am an author, lawyer, small business owner, avid pickup basketball player, and aspiring pro wrestler. Though I’m a Washington D.C., native, I left the hustle of the city and now live in Centreville, Virginia with my delightful wife Rebecca and the world’s largest shih-tzu, Bugsy. I had a lot of fun writing this book
and I hope you enjoy reading it.

“We need to teach the next generation of children from day one that they are responsible for their lives. Mankind’s greatest gift, also its greatest curse, is that we have free choice. We can make our choices built from love or from fear.”
