    About this ebook

    Author Alex Montez had many battles but never gave up the fight of pursuing his love and passions. The author fought battles such as anxiety, depression, insecurities, and lifes challenges in general. However, he did not let it derail his life nor take him hostage. Instead, the author took stock of his inner self, risking everything and stepping out of his comfort zone to find what fulfills his heart and soul. Although it was not always easy, in the end, it was worth the fight and struggle. If the author did not follow his heart, intuitions, and dreams, he would still be living an unfulfilled life.

    Alex Montez

    This islander, born and raised in St. Croix U.S Virgin Islands, has been living in the states for over 17 years. Author Alex Montez has not slowed his momentum since his first book, Poems of a Wounded Heart that touched our hearts in 2009. Everyone at least once or twice in their life time had their hearts broken and could relate with the author’s experiences of despair. The author published another book in 2010, Poetry of Love & Hope and not only did he publish books, but he also graduated with his bachelor’s degree in criminal justice with the concentration of human services in June of 2015. Furthermore, author Alex Montez is now going to school for his master’s degree in business administration with the concentration of human resource management and published this incredible book, Unconventional that took 3 years in the making because the author wanted to deliver an incredible book for everyone to read, relate and connect with the author through his poems.

      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan

      Winning Letter

      Aug 4, 2023

      I DON’T think I’d describe myself as a perfectionist. Yes, I do push hard to get things right and I expect the same from others, but I don’t spiral if things happen to be different from what the textbook says. As I’ve grown older I’ve realised there’

      Dedication

      I want to dedicate this book not just to family and friends, but my supporters as well. Like how our grandparents used to say, It takes a village to raise a child.. Therefore, it took friendship, love and support to make this book become reality. Furthermore, never forgetting what a great friend once told me never let anyone stop you from living your dream or your truth. Because life you only live it once and there are no do overs.
