Montice Harmon

Hi Montice , so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
My name is Montice Harmon (also known as “BoSsWRiTeR”) I am a multifaceted American creative professional known as a bestselling author, poet, musical spoken word artist, songwriter, publisher, seasonal actor, and motivational speaker. I have sold over one million books worldwide and have been featured in several films and TV shows.

Southern-born and raised in Moultrie, Georgia, I started modeling for commercial ads when I was just six years old. I developed a passion for writing at the age of twelve, which intensified after moving to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in 1996.
My talent for poetry soon transitioned into music, and by 2000, I was a published songwriter and poet. I experimented with blending elements of R&B, soul, and jazz into my poetic compositions.

Publishing and Business Ventures: I attended Florida A&M University for a B.A. in Journalism and Mass Communication. I established my own publishing company, BossWriterPublishing, LLC, under which I self-published over 25 books, including The Adventures of Angus the Mouse series and Expressions of Poetry collections.

Acting and Film: I have featured as a seasonal actor in several films and TV shows, such as Bessie, Survivor’s Remorse, and Being Mary Jane. I briefly co-founded a production company, King Blanco Productions, in 2014, but left in early 2015. Motivational Speaking: Alongside my creative work, I am an activist and a motivational speaker, focusing on youth empowerment, encouraging education and goal setting.

Now today, I continue to be an active and prolific creator. I continue to release new titles, with several scheduled for release in 2026 and beyond. I am a recording artist who has released multiple albums and singles, with my 2022 album Stardust streaming over 1,000,000 times.

I am a motivational speaker and storyteller, working with youth to help them make “bright decisions and wise choices”.
I have also directed several music videos and a podcast series titled The Montice Harmon Show. I am currently writing and working on music for my label ‘BoSsWRiTeR Ent’ artist.

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Of course the career I chose wasn’t a clear one. I went through a series of both success and struggles. My biggest struggle in the beginning was being a new independent publisher/author and finding my place with traditional publishers and authors.

As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
What I Do: I’m Montice Harmon — an author, poet, publisher and recording artist dedicated to inspiring and empowering others through the art of words and sound. My work spans across literature and music, blending storytelling, emotion, and life experiences to create art that resonates deeply with people from all walks of life.

What I Specialize In:
I specialize in crafting books, poetry and songs that reflect real emotions, personal growth, and the beauty of transformation. Whether I’m writing a powerful verse or producing a heartfelt melody, my focus is always on connection — giving my audience something they can feel, think about, and grow from.

What I’m Known For:
I’m best known for my bestselling children’s book ‘the Adventures of Angus the Mouse Series’ and my thought-provoking poetry collections and soul-stirring music that explores themes of love, struggle, faith, and resilience. My books and songs share a common thread — honesty and passion — offering motivation and healing to those navigating life’s highs and lows.

What I’m Most Proud Of:
I’m most proud of my children book and how my words and music have touched lives around the world. From readers who find strength in my poetry to listeners who connect with my lyrics, knowing that my art inspires hope and self-belief is my greatest accomplishment.

What Sets Me Apart:
What sets me apart is my authenticity and versatility. With books I write it’s connecting reality with fiction. And with music I merge the rhythmic flow of poetry with the emotional depth of music, creating a signature style that bridges both forms. My work isn’t just entertainment — it’s an experience, a message, and a movement toward self-expression and empowerment.

We all have a different way of looking at and defining success. How do you define success?
To me, success isn’t about fame, numbers, or how much the world applauds you — it’s about impact. It’s about waking up every day and doing what you love with purpose, passion, and faith. Success is knowing that my words, whether through a book or a song, have touched someone’s heart or helped them see their own strength a little clearer.

I measure success by growth — by how far I’ve come from where I started, and by how many people I can inspire along the way. True success is freedom: the freedom to be yourself, to create without limits, and to live in alignment with your truth. That’s what drives me every single day.
