About Me
ORANGE MINT AND HONEY (One World/Ballantine, February 2008) is my first novel. The movie based on it-"Sins of the Mother" starring Jill Scott-will premier on the Lifetime Movie Network (LMN) Feb. 7, 2010. One World/Ballantine released my 2nd novel CHILDREN OF THE WATERS in June 2009. On the Pajama Gardener I sing me, me, me, me, me, me, me. White Readers Meet Black Authors is where I hit a few more notes.
