Here's the final excerpt for the week from the Essence bestselling novel My Invisible Husband.Nikki’s trip to Las Vegas was filled with gambling and shows. In addition to enjoying Las Vegas, she rented a car and drove to Los Angeles to do more sight seeing. She tried to relax on her plane trip back to Dallas, but the man sitting next to her annoyed her by constantly pecking on his keyboard. He

I had an emotional weekend, but I'm glad it's over. I didn't know what to expect on Friday night or Saturday morning. It hurt to see "her" laying there looking peaceful as if she were sleeping. She was dressed in a beautiful yellow dress and matching yellow hat--looking prim and proper and at peace. I pray that she is at peace--that this old world is no longer in her memory but that she's having

When I got the word that my grandmother had passed this pass weekend, I was numb. She was 92 years old and people say, "well she lived a blessed life" or "well, she lived a long life;" it still doesn't make her passing easy.The realization that my Daddy's mom is no longer here didn't hit me until yesterday while sitting in church, listening to the choir sing, "I shall wear a crown...when it's all

Including people in my community. After Hurricane Katrina, many of us set glued to the TV set to see which path Hurricane Rita would go. As friends and family evacuated and headed up north, the news reported that it would sweep across my state. Only thing we could do was pray. Saturday morning many were without electric (us included). Three days, still no electric. As of today, however we do have

Hopefully, things will be back to normal soon...fyi...due to high winds resulting from Hurricane Rita, we lost power.

I received an email from someone who read my book--My Invisible Husband over the weekend. This person went on to say they thought it was great. Wow..."Someone actually gets what I'm writing" is what I say whenever I get an email from someone expressing "a like" for any of my books. That's music to my ears.

As I ring in my birthday, I sit and reminisce about the last year. Although, I've had some heartbreak and pain, I have a lot to thankful for. This morning I celebrate LIFE. I decided to bring it in with my favorite drink and listening to some old school R & B songs. Today, is B-Day and I plan on enjoying every moment. So if you come across this post in cyberspace, here's a cyber cheer. HAPPY

Luther Vandross will surely be remembered as one of the greatest musical legends of all time. With over two decades of greatness, his memory will live on not only through his music, but through his fans, friends and family. This month, J Records will release an exclusive tribute album showcasing some of today's biggest stars performing Luther's greatest and most well known hits. Celine Dion,

I wasn't directly affected by the storm because I'm in North Louisiana.After monitoring the news and talking to my friends in South Louisiana off and on all day on Monday, I thought the worse was over.I woke up in tears...I left CNN on last night when I went to bed and each time I woke up, I could hear about the devastation....my heart

The reason why I haven't posted as much is because I've been juggling handling family issues and writing. I'm almost through with my next novel and at this point, it's full speed ahead so I've neglected a few things...ie, blogging and hanging out with friends. The life of a writer demands solitude. Some of my friends understand and then there are others who call me anyway and act offended if I

On last Thursday, my book club and I gathered in the mini-van and went on a day trip. For me it was a last minute trip, because I didn't think I would get a chance to go see one of my top five all-time favorite authors--Ms. Terry McMillan. Thankfully, my sisters in my book club wasn't having it and thus the journey to Dallas to see Terry began.Although, there were several things that occurred

Here it is August the 9th and I'm just now posting a message to my blog. Well let's see what's been happening since I last posted.I've been busy interviewing music artists. The highlight was being able to interview what I like to consider a music legend and genius--Mr. Charlie Wilson. If you love good R & B, then you know he's a member of The Gap Band.

Lina’s CD - The Inner Beauty Movement contains 18 tracks. Lina has the type of voice that reminds you of some of the old school artists. I put her in the same category as Phyliss Hyman (which by the way was one of my favorite artists). My favorite cut on the entire CD is “Leaving You.” She tells a lover that she’s leaving him, but not for someone else, but for herself. Now that’s deep. There are

Why is life full of contradictions? It goes all the way back to grade school. Your teachers say one thing, but they do another. Your parents tell you one thing, but like that old motto "Do as I say, not as I do" seems to hold true. When you grow up and work, your company promises you one thing and the next thing you know, you're a statistic--part of downsizing.Love is like that too. To quote R

The Emancipation of Mimi CD is by far one of Mariah Carey's best works yet. The single WE BELONG TOGETHER is what prompted me to get the CD. Every time I heard it, I had to turn up the volume.

Sarah Blasko, an Australian singer, has a sound that's universal. The Overture & The Underscore is her debut CD. I didn't know what to expect when I first got the CD. The music doesn't overshadow her voice. The lyrics is what made me take notice of this new singer. There are eleven tracks on the CD.

I once believed that if I loved the one I was with unconditionally, that they would return the love unconditionally. Not only would they love me, they would always have my best interest at heart. I once believed that if I opened up and just be myself that a person would learn to appreciate me for who I am and not for what they could get out of me.

Email addiction...yes, it does exist. There was a poll on AOL last week asking participants how many times a day do they check their email. I realized if I'm logged on, when I hear "You've got mail" I'm inclined to check it immediately. One remedy I've come up with is to turn the volume off and the other remedy is not logging on to the internet at all and limiting my email views to 3 times per

WHAT IS JUNETEENTH?"Juneteenth" or "19th of June", is considered the date when slavery ended in America.

BATMAN BEGINS is the prequel to all of the other Batmans. It's also the BEST ONE out of all of them. I would rather see sequels starring the same cast (Christian Bale, Morgan Freeman, etc.), than watch them recast.The story takes you all over the world, ending up in Gotham City. It explains why Bruce Wayne uses the name "Batman" as well as how he flies(I wish I had some of his toys). I have to

Not sure if you heard but DESTINY'S CHILD will separate after their world tour.To some this isn't a big surprise. It's been in the making for sometime now.

So I'm sure we'll see them on the silver screen, so it's not like they will

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are not your typical couple. They have been married five or six years, but yet there are still secrets between them. The chemistry between the two is undeniable.These two are good together in more ways than one. Believe it or not, there aren't any raunchy sex scenes, but instead you see these two spar at it and the fire ignites as Angelina's character goes head to

Life is full of surprises. In the movie CRASH, viewers are in for an emotional ride.Before seeing the movie, several people told me that it was a "must see" and I thought to myself, "yeah right." Well, I have to agree with them.The writers/producers/directors/actors did an outstanding job. The movie shows how race issues still exist but yet it puts a different spin to it. There are several

The past few weeks I've taken a break from a lot of things. With my temp job (which has now ended) it took a lot out of me. Now that I've had time to regroup, I'm ready to finish the rest of the things on my to do list.I didn't realize how "tired" I was until I no longer had to work 14/16 hour days. Now don't get me wrong, I can write 14 hours and it doesn't bother me, but when it comes to other

I went to see the new movie - Monster-in-law, starring Jennifer Lopez as the bride to be and Jane Fonda as the Mother in law from hell.The movie was entertaining and hilarious.
