Infos

This is an explosive love story that goes to the depths of courage and toughness. Two of life's street dwelling misfits who come together accidently and bare their tortured souls to each other as they go through pure hell.

Sampson Ford was born in 1979 in the state of Mississippi. He was a talented athlete, especially in football. A high school standout who received many big colleges scholarship offers, but an injury ended his playing career. Ford turned to his biggest hobby of writing and became a Middle School English teacher after graduating from Mary Holmes College in his home state. Sampson married a longtime girlfriend who is also a teacher, and they have three children together. Mr. Ford, who visited family in Harlem, New York during most summers growing up, got the idea of his book Grounds from observations during those visits. He eventually hopes to turn the gritty tale into a film in the near future.

---

Grounds tells the story of two troubled individuals since their youth, who now struggle in their adulthood. DeNiro Sims is a rough around the edge's ex con, former professional boxer and every other criminal field you can think of who's actually trying to go straight. But the situations he gets involved in and the people he lets into his life make that goal almost impossible. Then we have Mexico, real name Alejandra, called Allie by some, along with a long list of other alias names. She's a prostitute who's trying to slow down herself, but her slick, shamming, scamming ways keep her on the run. When these two meet up in New York City, both their lives take a wild, twisted turn of love, danger and mystery. Can they, will they survive on the gritty, city Grounds?
