Summary
From drug trafficking convict to children’s book author, Roberta Williams is rewriting her story—one page at a time. With her debut series starring Bop and Bubbles, she’s aiming to teach kids life lessons and make smart choices, all while juggling five kids. Critics are skeptical—some won’t buy her books—but Williams says writing came naturally and she’s already dreaming up merch and sequels. Her next book? A raw look at childhood bullying, inspired by her own painful past—and she’s not afraid to call out bullies’ parents. This isn’t just a career pivot—it’s a full-on reinvention.
