I am beyond excited to announce that my FIRST book When a Purple Rose Blooms is available!! You can order copies directly from my publisher Nomadic Press. Order here.
The book is a collection of essays and poetry about my experiences with black womanhood. There's lots of humor, pain, and love on every page. This book wrote itself. I had no intention of releasing a book of poetry and essays, but when I saw how much I've written over the last 20 years I thought, "why not?" and went for it.
The book launch is tonight, 7pm at the Oakland Peace Center. I will be launching my book along with 6 other new writers to Nomadic Press. I'm in great, literary company.
Thank you to every person who has read this blog over the years, attended my readings, listened to my radio stories or read my articles. Thank you for your support. I hope you enjoy the book!

Cocoa Fly, I was around When both Kennedy brothers were assasinated, and now we've lost another great Kennedy brother. He fought so hard for people who have very little, and I don't know who could possible fill his shoes. I know he has instilled in his children and grandchildren their obligation to public service, but I don't know if they'll seek office. All we can do is pray that the health care reform bill is passed in Congress, so people like me will no longer have to pay such high premiums.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous I share your hope that our leaders can develop a good health care plan. I've been having health care drama myself with my provider. As for the Kennedy legacy, you think one of the grandchildren will step up to the Kennedy political throne?
