The poetry book entitled, Moments in Love: Relections through Poetic Expressions, is due to be released in May 2008.

"When I'm Loving You" is a novel dedicated to all the strong, black women who have survived and prospered even in the midst of all kinds of adversity. A special dedication goes out to all the caring, black men that hung in there when we strong, black women seemed emotionally unavailable. This book could not have been written without the positive black male presence I have in my life. Remember sistas and brothas, we are in this together. Black love is alive and well; all we have to do is just pay attention. To get your copy of "When I'm Loving You," please visit all of the online bookstores (Amazon, Borders, Barnes and Noble, Karibu, etc.) beginning November 15, 2007. Saturday, May 10, 2008, K. Lowery Moore is participating in the Afrocentric Book Expo at the Mall at Prince George's from noon until 5pm.
