Updates

My pc is on the blink. I miss being able to get up at any time during the day when I'm not at work and log in to type a thought here and there. I am still pondering ideas for my next book. My goal is to have it available before December 31,2006. My main questions are, where do I want my writing to go? What do I want my writing to do? The first book was easy. That was personal fulfillment and a release of energies that have plagued me for nine years. All of my emotions were penned into those poems. Since I am heading in a new direction for the first time in years I wish to take that energy and pen it into another project or two. I feel like my mind isn't quiet enough to do that yet.

Wow!!!

I haven't been on in quite some time. Blame that on me enjoying my vacation to the fullest. A new love blooming as well as a book out... speaking of which my first book signing is scheduled for June 30, 2006. It will be held at Robin's Bookstore in Philadelphia. Anyone not familiar with this city it is in center city on 13th Street and Sansom Street. It will be conveniently held at 7 pm. I procrastinated a bit out of fear but what do I have to lose? Not much, but there is a whole lot for me to gain so I am going for it! I am also working on book number two and a collaboration with a new friend. This is definitely turning out to be a very busy year for me. My goal for Christmas this year is to have my second book released so I can bring in 2007 with a tremendous BANG!!!

Keep On Moving

Don't stop now,
I won't stop now
too many things approaching fast.
Dreams that were once a mist in my eyes
are starting to materialize...

Cinco de Mayo

Happy day to all who celebrate!

A mother's work is never done. I find myself constantly fighting for my sons and it isn't even the outside world I am battling right now, it's their paternal side of the family. I am so fed up right now it is sickening. Don't they realize by now that any injustice I feel they are serving I will question and demand a correction? I already told the dad if he feels as if the boys are an inconvenience to what he wants to do with his life then sign over his rights and he won't have to be inconvenienced ever again in life by me. Otherwise stop trying to shortchange the boys.

Sharing is Caring

I have shared my poetry for the first time in months since the closing of my favorite poetry venue. It felt good to read some of my work out loud to someone who can appreciate it for what it is.

May Day

My book is officially released. It's not quite stocked in all bookstores but wherever there is a bookstore you can have it ordered! I am already geared up to work on another project or two (ideas are swimming around in my head) so I have to pace myself and promote my current book...
