An advocate for literacy, he is the author of four novels. Sensitive, caring and a hopeless romantic,  he lets the reader see sacred truths that men hide behind when they have been damaged by love and proves through his honest depictions of the complexity of men that being emotionally sensitive does not make a man weak.

“I was a straight cut-up. I just understood that words had power. They were an extension for me to express myself. At the time I wrote strictly to make the girls smile. When I took stock of my life, I decided to become an author because living a negative lifestyle had gotten me nowhere so I wanted to try my hand at doing something positive.” – Eric Myrieckes

“Expect unique when you pick up a Rickey Teems II book. You’re either going to love it, or you’re gonna hate it so much that you can’t stop thinking about it, either way, expect an uncontrollable emotional uprising. And that’s my goal. I want you to love to hate it or hate to love it (or maybe love to love it, that’s a good one too), but can’t get enough either way…For less than a fast food combo meal, you will be taken on the ride of your life. Like when we were kids and the pages of a book were a passport to a new world. You won’t be disappointed.” – Rickey Teems II
