I am so exhausted I can cry and I just woke up. When people cannot follow thru for basic things and behave like they are doing me a favor participating in things they do not have to, I cancel them in my brain. That means, never again, bitch. Never again. I am always working towards a vision of communal unity, but, I am not a fool. Communal vision requires all hands on deck. Mostly everyone is about their own hands and their own deck but want the bread made by someone else's hands. Not gonna happen.

Been making tshirts all day and there have been mistakes made and lessons learned. But, I feel so proud! #tshirts #liberatedmuse #vending #businessowner #kwanzaainaugust

Guess who the illustrator based the graphic appearance of the character Mariah on? Yup. That is me at 5 years-old. Mariah is about 3 years older. I cried when he showed me what she looked like for the first time. This book was a long time coming. I am so happy Hook is the illustrator. I'm a children's book author! #mariahsmaracas #childrensbook #book #character

The teen is off! #collegeprogram #college #teenager #summerprogram #parenting

PRE-ORDER MY NEW BOOK: In 2008, my daughter Khari was four years-old and loved picture books. She had begun reading before I could catch a breath, and I was eager to quench her thirst for reading by buying as many books as I could. As a writer, the thought occurred to me that it would be really cool to begin writing books for my little girl, featuring her as a character. That year, I did just that, writing the first book, "Mariah's Maracas", in less than a day. The book featured Khari as a classmate of the titular character. I decided that the book would be the first in a series of books that would each feature a student in Ms. Rio's fourth grade class. Life events over the next ten years halted the book project, pushing it further to the back burner. I had begun writing plays and my plays started to take center stage in my creative life, leaving me with little time to finish publishing my children's book. In 2014, I had found an illustrator and was ready to begin the publishing journey. But, tragedy struck my family that year, as I lost my mother, and, again, the project stalled. This year, I am excited to announce that my book "Mariah's Maracas" will be available for sale this year, debuting at the upcoming event "Kwanzaa in August Festival" taking place in Washington, DC. You can pre-order the book when you contribute $15 or more to this campaign for the book. Your contribution allows me to purchase maracas that I would like to distribute to children when I begin touring to promote the book this year. Your contribution also allows me to donate books along the tour to special children and families who could benefit from free reading materials. #mariahsmaracas #childrensbook #reading #children #preorder

My little girl leaves on Sunday for her program and we got sheets for her dorm bed, a desk lamp and other necessities yesterday. I am trying not to be a worry wart. #daughter #teen #growinggirls #mothering #mommyduty #growingup
