Half a Mill Half a Mill Jasun Wardlaw, (January 25, 1973 – October 24, 2003) better known by his stage name Half a Mill, was a Brooklyn-based American rapper who was shot and killed in the Albany Projects in Brooklyn, New York on October 24, 2003. Jasun was considered an underground rapper in the early 1990's. He eventually had his breakthrough in 1997 when he appeared in an album called "The Firm" which includes a couple more artists like nas, Nature (rapper), and Foxy Brown (rapper). Shortly after he realized that the album did not meet the expectations in terms of copies sold
A Girl Is a Half-formed Thing by numerous companies. The book was eventually first published in 2013, with an initial print run of 1000 copies, by Galley Beggar Press of Norwich, England. Mr Layte, of Galley Beggar Press recalled that the unusual writing-style led him to take up the novel where others had overlooked it:I thought this was one of the most important books I had ever read. It had the same effect on me as when I first read Samuel Beckett. It was a game-changer as far as what could be done.In 2014, rights for a trade paperback were sold to publishers Faber and Faber.
