Where Have I Been?
It seems like forever since I completed a book. Two years to be exact. Time can fly when your busy with other things. My motto used to be write EVERYDAY even if it's a sentence or two. But in 2024 that became near impossible. Let me preface by saying my mother is not easy to get along with, and she has always been nasty to my daughter (even though she thinks it's playful). But then came the statement that she was disowning her. After that I was done. I didn't speak to my mom

When the Curtain Falls is Released! Where did I get the ideas for this novel?
My latest novel, "When the Curtain Falls" was released in late February. At the time I was ill and taking all sorts of meds, and going to different doctors trying to figure out what was going on. It took weeks, but I finally started feeling better, but I was never able to celebrate this release as I should have. As my readers know I get a lot of inspiration from my dreams, but not for this book. The inspo for this rockstar romance came from the song of the same title. A song

Anatomy of a Novel: New Sensation
My latest novel, New Sensation, hit the market this month. I call it a ''transition'' novel within my Love and Lush series, as I transition away from the storylines heavy with the character of Caesar Blue. Not because I don't love Caesar, but because he is, after all, not alive. He brought his friend Johnnie Vega together with Melanie. The two of them are very much in love, deeply loyal to one another, and new parents. I just didn't know where Caesar was going to fit in with

A new year, a new era for my books!
2021 is off to a great start for me personally as an author. As of December 31, 2020, I now hold the rights to my first four books. My publisher relinquished them back to me, and I am beyond thrilled. While I am forever thankful and grateful to Extasy Books for giving me my first published book, and for teaching me so much about being an author, I knew it was time for me to break ranks and become a full time Indie author. My first four books are part of my Love on Fire seri
