Irony comes into play when Beckwith reveals that he never anticipated becoming a writer, but a love for literature that developed later in life, led him to pursue career options he hadn’t previously considered. A true visionary, Beckwith states that he has never taken his literary gift for granted. What’s in it for me? is his introductory offering. It is a thriller that’s destined to become a classic. He also exhibits a passion for HIV/AIDS advocacy and strives to increase awareness of the condition. Connect With Christopher: Email: [email protected]
