Give us a summary of your book!
I’m not sure which book you have so I’ll give all three:
Bold Love A Letter to My Young Sisters: Synopsis
Bold Love: A Letter to My Young Sisters is a love letter full of personal experiences, science and deliberate encouragement to help one move through the challenges related to self-esteem, absent relationships and racial challenges. This body of work is written through the eyes of the writer as if she were her younger self. Bold Love speaks to young ladies and women that may not understand the pathology of their behaviors. Bold Love uses poetry and anonymous testimony to normalize any reader that may feel like their problem is one that only they have faced. Bold Love creates a platform to encourage self-reflection and makes a plea for one to accept their reality and not live in fantasy by holding on to what one believes should have been. The love letter is to encourage a young generation to learn who they are and where they come from and to not allow unfavorable circumstances stunt the promise that was put on their lives.
Bold Choice They Say I’m Bad: Synopsis
Follow Micah on his journey to understanding how to express himself in a healthy manner and deciphering between healthy and unhealthy choices. He also learns the power of forgiveness.

Anything else you would like to share?
Deciding to start my business and write is a testimony of God’s Grace over my life. I could have easily taken another path. Statics say that I shouldn’t have made it this far; but God. My work and business is my testimony of faith, survival and healing. I hope to be global or at least nationwide and make it to ELLEN(;0)
