I Love books reading and writing. Ghetto Lullabies is my first book. My second book My Soul it Knows His Mercies is now available, and the first three books in my children's series are now complete and in the illustration phase hopefully to be out by Christmas. I like live football, picnics in the park. I love music I can really blow if I do say so myself. I love poetry and jazz clubs.
Music
Atlantis by the Isley Brothers is one of my all time favorite songs. I'm old school to my heart. Stevie Wonder, the Stylistics, Atlantic Starr. I also love Prince I think there is probably a Prince song to match every phase of my life. Lately I've been listening to a LOT of Kem, India Aire (yea I probably spelled it wrong) and am really crazy about Ciarra's new song Promise I think its a very sexy song.
Movies
I love horror movies, not blood and guts. I love action and suspense. I really like the Blue Collar Comedy Tour as well as the Kings of Comedy. I also like period pieces like Gone With the Wind, Pride and Prejudice, and Romeo and Juliett. I love The Best Man, and anything Tyler Perry
Television
My favorite shows are House, Gossip Girl, The Discovery Channel, Ice Road Truckers
Books
Ghetto Lullabies, Erotic Noir, Tuesday's With Morrie, Edgar Allan Poe, Shakespeare.
Heroes
Every single mother who goes out and works everyday to care for their children. Also those who work and go to school to make a better life for their children and themselves because I feel their pain.
