My major influence on reading and writing books was my grandfather because he wasa avid reader and was he always writing different things in his notebook, also he was a great storyteller, I enjoyed his stories about the good old days, family,Jim Crow in Mississippi and funny stories about his childhood. Cargiving and healthcare is my backgound which I try to  incorporate in my books, and I am a christian, so I incorporate faith in my books. My main genre is African American Christian Fiction.
