I Can't Wait

So, i'm almost done with my book. I mean I am at the very end. It's a wonderful feeling. I can only imagine how i'll feel when it's done. I've been wanting to publish a book for a long time. I have boxes of things that i've written, but I never did anything with the stuff. When I started this book I was determined to see it all the way to the end.

I want to self-publish. I don't want anyone to tell me to change anything or keep most of the money and give me pennies. I've seen authors on the street selling their books out of their trunks. One young lady found a spot on 125th street and sold hers out of a grocery store shopping cart. That's what's up! I'm ready to hustle. It's all a part of loving what you do.

I know a couple people who have done what I would like to do. Check their books out when you have a chance. Buy a copy. Independent authors need all the support they can get. I hope to join the ranks very soon.

Caroline McGill does my taxes. She sells her books out of her desk and she also has a website.
Caroline's books talk a lot about the AIDS epidemic. Check her out. I was pleasantly surprised when I read her books. I actually couldn't put them down. They have a street edge, but with meaning. Her web address is www.synergypublications.com

One of my son's teachers, Bradley Huff, has published his book. The title is, "Alone Boy." It can be purchased on Amazon.com. www.amazon.com/tag/bradley%20huff/products I'm really proud of him. I saw him at the school one Saturday and he was really happy about the book being done.

I think we should support all independents trying to make it in the world. My friend, Cecil, is a music producer and he's currently producing his cousin, Shalea Silk, a very talented singer and songwriter. They've been working really hard and Shalea has been nominated for and Underground Music Award as Most Promising Female Singer. You can vote for her at www.hiphoppalace.com She is also on Clear Channel's New list. If she gets enough spins she'll be added to their radio rotation on two r&b stations in New York. Check her out. http://www.power1051fm.com/cc-common/artist_submission/player.html?art=146768 The song has to play for 3 minutes in order for the spin to count. Help them out.

Hopefully, i'll be joining the ranks, hustling to get my book sold soon. Stay tuned...
