Books
Mine of course! LOL! But really...I'm an avid reader, especially of pageturning novels, which means I can't list every book I love.
About me: Who am I? I'm a woman who wants it all and plans on getting it! That is, generational wealth, health, prosperity and happiness, peace in EVERY area of my life. On this journey called life, I'm an author of Christian/inspirational novels, a wife to a husband with great visions and the mother to an inquisitive son and divine diva daughter.
I'm an author of inspirational novels -- A Heart of Devotion, Zora's Cry, The Truth About Love, and my upcoming releases THE LAST WOMAN STANDING (in August 2009) and the anthology A MILLION BLESSINGS (in March 2010).
There are many more books and characters in my mind that are fighting to be the next one on paper. I hope we'll stay connected!
Who I'd like to meet: President Barack and First Lady Michelle Obama, Bill Clinton, Nelson Mandela, Tyler Perry, Oprah Winfrey, Michael Jordan, my deceased maternal grandfather (Abraham) who died before I was conceived (but NO time soon!), and others who enjoy reading, writing, and the business of books.
And I can't forget about my loyal book readers.I love seeing you guys and the other authors and celebs that I've had the pleasure of meeting. Take a peek at some of them...

This is why Sista Gurl do what we do, we are not afraid to talk about molestation. The staff of Sista Gurl was out spending the word of awareness about molestation. When some people hear what we have to say, they claim up, they didn’t want to hear anymore and walk away. Neatness to say most of those people who walk away have children somewhere nearby. There was one person who touched my heart that day. After a mother walked away from our booth a little girl I believed to be the woman’s daughter. She have to be somewhere around the age of 9 to 11. She stopped and asked me “what does molestation means?’ I give her a quick answer where I hope she understood where I was coming from. I replied “molestation mean when someone touch you where it make you feel uncomfortable “.The little girl gave such a disgusting look. We was blown away that she never hear of the word molestation or she didn’t know what it meant. I say all of this to say, parents please take time to talk to your babies about this topic, MOLESTATION. Those talks may save your children’s life. If you have any comments please feel free to express yourself.
Thank you for fellowshipping with us for our August meeting, Tia. We enjoyed reading and discussing The Last Woman Standing with you. May God continue to bless you to pen excellent, life-changing books.
I am truly blessed with the gift of your friendship. I'm very sorry that I haven't been in touch like I should have lately. With all that has been going on with Winston I have not gotten too many chances to be online. The weeks have really gone by fast. I praise God so much that Winston is improving and is almost back to 100%. Now we’re going through an uncertain future with JJ as he remains in ICU at the animal hospital. Hopefully everything will be fine and back to normal soon. Will you please keep our family in your prayers? Thank you for understanding and continuing to be my friend.

Stopping by to give some love
Thank you for allowing me to give this brief description of Dear Joseph.
DEAR JOSEPH is about Caregivers, individuals who are assigned to restore the broken frames of fallen lives. In this book, one such Caregiver is Mama Flo, who has been given the assignment of getting a bitter old man out of a wheel chair. Mama Flo must motivate a fallen hero back to his place of compassion and purpose. This book is also about an orphaned boy named Joseph who struggles with the reality that he has been given the gift of having visions. These visions are prophetic and reveal lessons that take him back into time and hurl him forward into the future. The visions take him to the orphanage where he was placed in as a child. The visions help him to remember the lessons that power is corrupting and without God we are nothing. The visions take him to the festering African plains of a refugee camp where he learns about the most important gift life gives which is being able to be grateful. It is my prayer that Dear Joseph will provide a sense of healing and recovery in a fallen broken life.
With much love, for those who discover the extraordinary experience of reading Dear Joseph.
