Taking her talent very seriously and by the storm, she began performing with a literary group of writers she helped to collaborate. Goins exposed her spoken word talent through the open mic venues and gained enough confidence to write her very first novel. This path has led her on what she refers to as an inspirational journey that overall has heightened her passion to write. Pooling together financial resources, she started her own publishing company, Xpressit Publications and released her novel, Married Man in May of 2002.
