Blog postI remember when Musiq Soulchild launched his first album, Aijuswanaseing. If you weren’t hooked on “Love” in the year 2000, you were possibly sleeping through a classic.
Knowing the title, which is basically “I Just Want to Sing”, I finally understand the heart of such an artist.
For over a decade, I was a high school English teacher, and although some aspects were rewarding, I wasn’t fulfilled. I started a consulting firm for writers who desired to publish their works, and fo -
Blog postWhat do you believe? And I’m not referring to religion—a belief in God or some other deity. What do you believe about life? Progress? Success? Relationships? Are they easy? Challenging?
A while ago, I read Boni Lonnsburry’s The Map, and since then I’ve consistently evaluated my beliefs based on what my desires are in comparison to what I’ve actually manifested. Knowing that I create my reality, it is easy to identify when my beliefs are hindering the manifestation of my desires -
Blog postAn author’s style, or identity, is determined by numerous factors, but what outweighs them all is the impact the author desires to have on readers. In grade school, students are taught the various purposes a writer may have: to entertain, persuade, or inform. The intent of a good writer is to touch on all three. How do we create literary masterpieces that teach audiences something about which they weren’t already knowledgeable, keep them on the edge of their seat in dramatic suspense, and insp

Blog postWe’re days away from Christmas. (And I mean, the final stretch.) Today marks the final day of school for high school students in this district, so I was more than anxious to see it. I returned to the classroom after taking 18 months to work from home and be closer to our newest edition, Isaiah. We relocated from Florida to Atlanta in August in order for me to take the position here. And today’s events further the season that my husband and I have coined “The Layover.”

Blog postA mausoleum painted white and nestled on the edge of one of the oldest cemeteries in the south, is definitely noticeable–if anyone cares to take a look. Even further, the woman who remains there has evaded history books since the twenties, and only few followers and historians are knowledgeable of her ever existing. Her name was Princess Laura Kofi, or Mother Kofi, after she founded the Universal African Church, and she was from Africa’s Gold Coast–a land from which many of our ancestors had

Blog postThe other day, I posted this statement to one of my social media accounts:
In a discussion with a young lady last week, I nonchalantly told her that my husband could sleep with whomever he’d like. I’m sure she considered the type of lifestyle I may live, and she looked appalled. I broke the silence with, “but he cannot stay married to me and do it.” Life is not about what (or who) you can control, but about knowing and being confident in who you are. Before you are a wife, a fianc&eac -
Blog postAs someone who loves every art form, and one who enjoys diving into every genre of writing, from poetry to stage plays to fiction to nonfiction and anything else that may rest in between, the idea of branding is a bit perplexing. I just love to write. But what kind of writer am I?
I am a spiritual person who honors the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and who was determined to establish a lasting relationship with God–one where I consistently recognize his goodness operating in my life and -
Blog postA major part of growth and understanding identity is first recognizing who we’re NOT. We go through childhood and into adulthood surrounded by opinions, stigmas, and varying levels of expectations. There are those of us who experienced abuse and neglect that may have forced us to undervalue ourselves or struggle in the area of confidence. There are others who lacked financially and whose resources were too insufficient to meet their individual needs, so all they know is financial struggle ins

Blog postLately I’ve received a few comments about the level of grace with which I operate, or my level of patience. I must say, I can’t see the grace and patience that’s observed by others. I think I can be quite impatient when it comes to something I want. (Aren’t most of us?) When it comes to working with someone on any level, I believe that I am quite patient. I can attribute it to grace, but I believe that it is my conscious effort to back away at the typical point of frustration that creates bal

Blog postI was running ten minutes behind schedule this morning because I assumed I’d lost my keys. Well, there was a set sitting on the dresser, but they had to be my husband’s. Besides, that’s his side and everything over there belongs to him. So, I went on a quest to find my keys to get my daughter off to enjoy breakfast—which she sometimes claims to be a bit better than mine—with her classmates at school. I looked under the couch cushions, on top of the fridge and kitchen counters, the b
