William Gray

Deacon William Gray

Thanks for visiting my web page and online store. A little about me and how my relationship with writing has developed over the years to me now being a published author!

A native of Ohio, born in Dayton but reared in a small town called Spring, TX is where I became aware of my writing talent. My English Teacher discovered this gift I had and encouraged me to pursue it. In my later years, my life took a turn because I had made some poor decisions. Those decisions caused me to have to take a leave of absence from my family.


During this time away, I had a spiritual encounter where God showed me something’s, and in a way that would change my life. God had blessed me to do a nation-wide broadcast from inside the walls with ABC News, A Sports News Exclusive. Since that overwhelming experience, I vowed to write for the Lord, and become a creative writer lifting up the name of Jesus.

Now, I am a devout Christian and member of New Creation Cathedral Church of Houston Texas under the leadership of Bishop Anthony and first Lady Brenda Mosley, who have been very supportive of this book. This book, Up Close and Personal: Poetically Speaking… has been compiled with testimonies and inspirations given me by God, designed to encourage Hearts and Minds to take a closer walk with thee.

If you like to read pros or poetry, there is something in this book for you to read and be encouraged by. I am planing to release more books in the near future as the Lord is constantly pouring into me and it is my mission to pour that Good News Out!
