Additional information
|
| I have been touring with "Living Crazy Like Fly" for over seven years and still have several upcoming events and booksignings. I am a national spokeswoman for Safe Place and I am trying to raise money for Safe Place with some of the proceeds from my story. I appreciate any and all reviews and/or help in that regard. I have thoroughly enjoyed lecturing at the colleges, especially University of North Florida in Jacksonville,and also at the area high schools and middle schools. I am available to do more in the future. I also enjoy speaking to any other book clubs, women's/men, rotatary clubs, organizations, writing classes or groups giving motivational engagements on the topic of "Going After Your Dream And Getting It" and "One Girls Story Of Surviving Abuse." My second book, "Passing Thoughts" is now available at Barnes and Nobles. You can order it online at http://shoppow.com, www.amazon.com or www.bn.com.
Now available - "Open Mic Jacksonville" which features 45 North Florida Laurettes, and for which I am the creator/Director. This book, published by Ocean Publishing, is a collection of work of North Florida poets known and unknown to the Northeast Florida area. Some of the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Literacy Foundation.
Also stay tuned for the release of "Danczah", (the sequel to "Fly" the college years!) and also the re-release of "Living Crazy Like Fly", thickah, biggah, juicer, more pics, better edited.
Oh yeah...and the screenplay for the book is also done and being sent out as you read! YE-HA!!
