In today's interview Alex tells her secret coming of age story that takes place from when she was 15 to 20 years old.  You will not believe the living she packed into those five years.  And now, at the ripe old age of 25, she's ready to document much of what she can remember, and to tell us how she survived everything from evil boyfriends, to drug abuse, to being technically dead and getting shot at by a pimp.   And when we're done you'll understand why Alex owns her story, but why she keeps it a secret.
