Books and Authors

Books ,books books,
Coming out of the Slam Jam Conference was a boost to write and I wrestle with the noble intention of writing everyday. Most writers know how hard that is especially when you have a full time life. The other thing was the boost to read, there were so many authors whom I met and whose books I want to read. In fact I read a few already . You can check my reviews at Goodreads and Amazon.com -the links are at the top of the page. It is a special experience to meet a person and be treated to a buffet of spicy literary treats that they provide .
So far I've read Jewell and the Dapper Dan (Keith Thomas Walker), Sleepless Nights (Norwood Holland), The Playa's Handbook (Brenda Jackson) and now I'm on the Heist (Seinna Mynx). They've all been very good and I have many more to look forward to .
Check them out!

SLAM JAM 2012 -The BOMB !

A well spent few days at the 2012 Slam Jam Romance Conference. Kudos to Claritta and the Sistas of Color Book Club for a very well organized conference. Awesome workshops with useful information and the camaraderie and support from fellow authors was outstanding. Also a great opportunity to meet readers and book club members who demonstrate an unbridled passion for their books and plenty of love for the authors. Much love to all of you. It was a fantastic experience that has changed the way I view writing and will stay with me for a long time . I'm looking forward to making contact with many of the people I met and interacting with them from here on .

I'm here in Little Rock Arkansas at the Romance Slam Jam Conference- meeting fellow authors and readers.
So far it's great lots of love from everyone

GUILTY REVIEWS !

I read "Guilty" within 4-5 hours after receiving a copy. I must say that It was definitely a "page turner" I was totally engrossed in this novel written by Sean Russell.

Yo Doc. I just finish reading your book. I enjoyed it. I have not read a novel in years but yours kept me curious on how it would end. It was good!!!

Great book that I would recommend to anyone! Guilty is the most exciting novel that I have read in a while... a nice break from academic books. The action was hype throughout the entire book.

I absolutely adore this book.
I like the way that the author describes every aspect of the book.
for someone like me who has never been exposed to caribbean novels this book gives me an introduction into this kind of writing.
I am waiting for the continuation to this book. i would have liked the book to be 20pages longer but the suspence for the next book is greatly anticipated.
