Greetings, my readers. Happy Friday! I am using this post as an opportunity to let you know what is coming next. I am putting the finishing touches on my third book of poetry, Quiet With A Loud Mind. This will be book number 5 for me. For those of you who remember, Poetic Ruminations: Volume 2 came out in 2018. It has been nearly four years already, so it is about time to come out with something. I have… a few things to say. No firm date, but the goal is to have it out in Fall of 2022. Just keep the title in mind.
More information will be available later. Take care, and enjoy your weekend!

Good afternoon, my readers. It has been a quiet summer for the most part. However, I have been promoting my work here and there. I am putting up this post to let you all know that I have the honor to be one of the authors interviewed for this year’s virtual Harlem Book Fair. It is a one-on-one interview with Max Rodriguez, the founder of the Harlem Book Fair.
I will be discussing my latest book “The Binge Watcher’s Guide to Black Mirror” This will occur on Saturday, July 31st, 2021 from 11 am to 2 pm.
