They're just words!! I keep telling myself that but the more I write the more I realize words really do shape, help, break, renew, all that is in me and you. That's the connection between the masses, we all need encouragement to understand that everyone one of us must face the challenges of overcoming difficulties or hardships, and the strength comes from within, with God's help, as well as from our support system. My inspiration to write comes from life experiences, whether directly or indirectly, like most writers, I write what I feel. I'm intrigued by the differences we all share as human beings, but even more absorbed with how we're very much the same. When you take away the facades, status, fears, goals and failures, the very core is identical. Every one of us seeks approval and acceptance, if not from the masses, certainly from loved ones. Each and every being has a purpose, my journey is to help those, including myself, to find exactly what that purpose is. I sincerely believe I am on my way there, I hope to see you there as well.

My book of poetry is available, "Can we tell you", is a collaboration with Dayvaughn Mays, my nephew. We write about relevance and healing. The book is available print on demand only on the sites of Barnes and Noble, Amazon, Target, I-Universe, Books a Million, to name a few. Read our mission statement on any of those sites, if the mission statement engages you, I believe the book will as well.
