writing ... reading ... traveling ... finding new desserts ... meddling in the lives of my family members ... trying new things ...
Music
I have to listen to sexy lyrics when I write so artists I typically listen to include Luther Vandross, Mary J. Blige, Usher, Bobby Valentino, Ginuwine, R. Kelly, Keith Sweat, Al Green, and more.
Movies
Right now, my favorite movies weem to be those that provide inspiration for my writing because they feature lots of sexy shots of the hunky male stars. :-) So ... ones that come to mind include: MOTIVES, starring Shemar Moore and Vivica A. Fox; ASUNDER, starring Blair Underwood and Debbi Morgan; and anything starring Antonio Banderas.
Television
