We have updated Gully with a fresh coat of paint. Right here is the brand new cover of Gully, the hottest urban literature book release of the year.

What’s the reason for this change? Well, we want our readers to feel like they’re getting a quality product when they buy it in paperback. We also wanted some stronger visuals that represent the themes of the book.

The model on the cover represents Homilee once she has made a significant leap in her life and become a music artist. The bridge leading to manhattan represents the moment Homielee’s life shifts from gritty street life to the corrupt corporate world.

If you already bought the old cover for Gully in print and want to upgrade, send an email with proof of purchase and we’ll arrange for an upgrade. You may be required to cover shipping depending on where you are.

ThisIs50: Who is Latris Oliveira?

Latris: I (Latris Oliveira) am a creative entrepreneur hailing from Long Island, New York. I spent a lot of time growing up in Queens due to my parents separating early on. I moved out of my parents’ care when I was a young girl, which meant I had to find creative ways to survive. That has stayed with me. Today, I run a successful fashion business, I make music, and I now write books.
