May 1, 2002.
Dear Friends:
Happy May Day! I know it’s been a while since I last communicated with you and that’s because I’ve been busy finishing up my new novel
A Love Of My Own. I wanted to share some news and update you!
First a bit of good news. On Friday May 3, 2002 I will be hosting an evening with one of my favorite authors Tina McElroy Ansa in New York at the Barnes and Noble Union Square, 7:30 p.m. Please join Tina and myself for an entertaining evening as we discuss her new novel,
You Know Better.
Now the update. The publication date for my new novel has been moved from July 9, 2002 to July 30, 2002
**(PERFECT CT4 27th BIRTHDAY PRESENT)**
. It will include several new characters and old favorites like Raymond Winston Tyler and John Basil Henderson. Look for details and excerpts coming in early June 2002.
I will be touring this summer and we’ve added some new cities. I am looking forward to visiting Nashville, Tennessee, Tampa, Florida, Cleveland, Ohio, Louisville, Kentucky, Pasadena, California and Portland, Oregon in addition to my yearly favorites. Please check the website in June for details and dates.
Finally I am pleased to announce that
Any Way The Wind Blows won Blackboard’s Novel of the Year and Showtime has just purchased
Invisible Life and Just As I Am for the screen. I’m excited because I will be more involved with the project and joining me as producers are: Robert Townsend, Loretha Jones and Academy Award Winner Halle Berry. Halle is
one of the producers and I am grateful to have all three of these talented people and Showtime on my team. Well, that’s it for now. I am still behind on your e-mails, but I am trying.
Warm Regards and Blessings,
