Guess Who's Here!

So the package arrived today and here’s the video of me opening the box. I kept my composure throughout the beginning of the recording. When I stopped recording I laughed and skweeed for a full five minutes. My sister asked if I was still recording and she told me I should’ve recorded my whole reaction. Well…I resumed recording and I did laugh out loud once or twice. I know it doesn’t look like it, but I’m really, really excited!

IT'S COMING!!

It’s almost time!! Cover reveal is Tuesday the 16th. I’m excited. I hope you like it. I think it perfectly complements Glory Bishop and captures the essence of the story. I am a little worried that this one is a bit more intense than Glory Bishop… a lot more drama, I think. All of the favorite characters from book one are back… well, almost all of them. Right now, I’m doing layout designs for banners, postcards, and other swag. Do I really need swag… mugs and tote bags? I’ve got cute Glory Bishop bookmarks with a matching tassel with charms.. … Continue reading IT'S COMING!!

Happy 4th of July CC! – Wherever You Are.

The crowds at the beach grew quickly as the days grew longer and the weather grew warmer, and on the 4th of July, the beach was packed.  The drummers camped on the sidewalk and as the sun went down, the pounding African rhythms filled the air.   A few yards away, the bikers camped in the parking lot.  In the twilight, the motorcycle running lights sparkled like tiny diamonds, washing out the stars in the night sky.  The wailing of classic blues and soul blending with the beat of African drums.   Beyond the bikers were the kids.  Big cars and … Continue reading Happy 4th of July CC! – Wherever You Are.

Ok…I just googled myself! My pic, my book, & my interviews are on page 1 …OMG!!!

Today is ebook launch day and to say I’m excited would be a gross understatement. I’m having a hard time doing anything else but staring at my screen hitting the refresh button. Between Amazon and Goodreads, I have 5 reviews…one has a spoiler (boo)…mostly 5 stars. I wonder if this is how all debut authors feel…giddy and terrified? I have several committed reviewers and as I see those reviews to come in, I’m scared to click. Is that silly? When I started writing this story in 1992, it was just a single line: …and that’s where the sunrise found her…stripped … Continue reading Ok…I just googled myself!

Feeling some kinda way…

https://zurl.co/oMxe This is the house I grew up in.  It burned up yesterday.  The smoke is pouring out of what was once my bedroom.  I used to climb out of my bedroom window and sit on the roof over the front porch and watch the people, or watch the stars. My cousins lived on the right side and two doors down on the left was my best friend Tracey.  Across the street is the most beautiful church I’d ever seen.  All summer long, the priest would say mass with the doors open. I only got a few glimpses of the … Continue reading Feeling some kinda way…
