Y’all pray with me. I’m on a deadline to get my first full bona fide novel finished by the end of this month. This is a story that is near and dear and has been with me for a good long while.

She’s ready to be born and the action is set in Little Rock so there will be some really fun reference points for those of us who call this special city home.

This is one of those stories that I know will be powerful in book form, but I already know it will need a screenplay as well. I already know several of the songs that will need to be on the soundtrack.

This thing is serious.

If you enjoy a good strong love story and you want to read a story set somewhere other than DC, LA, Chicago, Atlanta or New Orleans, have I got something that will tickle your fancy!

Let’s do this!
