Like a minister who was called to the ministry, I was called to write. In 1992 I had a head aneuryms. Before I healed I began to write.My parents, native Mississippians and African Americans, talked with the family about their life in that state. Although "Backside of the Country" is fiction, it was motivated by the stories I have heard since I was a child.

"Backside of the Country" is my first published book.

My book was recently released, and it is my first published work. Two book signings were set. My church, Berry Temple United Methodist, will be hosting a book signing August 26, 2007. Churches in the city will be invited. My sorority, Gamma Gamma Omega chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha, will be hosting another one September 8, 2007. I am looking forward to both of them.

"Backside of the Country" is sometimes heartwarming and sometimes harsh. It takes place in Mississippi and North Carolina during the years of 1930-1965. The story contains some history of the period.

"Backside of the Country" gives insight into what many African American families had to endure then and sometimes now.

I am scheduled for two book signings. One will occur in August. The other will take place September 8, 2007.
