As a child Malcolm watched many action adventures, read comic books of superheroes and was captivated by science fiction television shows. However in the seventies, as he entered his teen years he noticed there were few African American role models on television shows and in movies as well as in books. Upon further review, he concluded that in the entertainment media African Americans were portrayed as comic relief characters, sidekicks, pimps, hustlers or thieves. He had arguments with his friends over which character was a role model "Shaft" or "Superfly." Needless to say, he was in the minority. Then he noticed most of his peers who feared they would not go to college aspired...actually aspired...to become pimps, hustlers and drug dealers. Unfortunately, about ninety percent succeeded. He attributes this to the lack of role models and the bombardment of negative stereotyping in the entertainment media. So as a teenager, He created his own role models through story form.

With the aid of family and friends, Malcolm launched Rage Books with his first Osguard book, Homecoming in September of 2009. Since then, Malcolm has printed second editions of the second and third books, Revelations and Armageddon, and released the fourth book in the series Revenge. With these novels as the launch pad, Rage Books’ goal is to grow and eventually contend with other independent trade publishers of science fiction, fantasy and horror, like Tor, DAW and Baen publishing.
