Urban Fiction

Urban fiction is also known as street lit or street fiction. It is written primarily by African-Americans and is as much defined by the socio-economic realities and culture of its characters as the urban setting. The tone for urban fiction is usually dark, focusing on the underside of city living. Profanity, sex, and violence are usually explicit, with the writer not shying away from or watering-down the material. Most authors of this genre draw upon their past experiences to depict their storylines

Ronald is a very shrewd, crazy, and determined killer who is not from Delaware where there are few thinkers but too many fools who had the inability to mind their own business. They both bemoaned this fact about Delaware.
