Q2. What are your favorite books to read?
A. I love self-help books or autobiography’s that shows how one overcomes adversities and ends up on top. Those types of books motivate me!
Q3. Do you like coffee or tea?
A. I like Tea, I became a big tea lover when I had a performance tour in Africa. I was on tour in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and it’s literally their custom to have tea with every meal. I eventually found myself drinking tea at least 3 to 4 times a day! Thinking back perhaps that’s how I lost weight while I was there! Lol.
Q4.How many books have you written?
A. I’ve written two books! The first book is a self-help/autobiography entitled: Fear of Failure, Fear of Not Trying! It discusses my trials, tribulations, and triumphs in the music industry, my failures, setbacks of juggling music, going through a divorce, raising two sons on my own all while going back to college! I’ve very proud of my book as I honestly had to overcome my own fear of telling my story and hoping it would be well received! I am proud to say I became an Amazon Best Seller and Best New Release within 7 hours of my pre-release!
My second book just dropped. It’s my first children’s book entitled: The Adventures in Butta Butta Land – Overcoming Fear and Doubt. Children at a young age start to have fear and doubt and I wanted to address them on their level to let them know, one they are not alone and two encourage some steps to take to overcome. My goal is to get this into schools, and libraries worldwide.
Q5. Do you have a favorite bookstore?
A. I love Barnes and Noble- perhaps because it’s close to my house lol- but seriously, I go in there, grab a good book, and get lost in my own world!
Q6. Did you go to college for writing?
A. No, I have a degree in Computer Information Systems, and another in Public Relations/Marketing. But at the age of 13, I began writing songs
Q7. Growing up What were your favorite books to read?
A. Prosperity Secrets of the Ages by Catherine Ponder- that book changed my life. It taught me that when I rule my mind, I rule my world.
Q8. How did you get inspired to write a book?
A. I’ve always wanted to write my own book but I was scared of being transparent, telling my story, hoping people would support it, etc, and one day while I was performing at this Yacht party in Ft Lauderdale. The guest speaker got up to do his speech. He is a millionaire, his name is Bill Walsh and I’ll never forget it. He said write your story and it honestly felt like the message was meant for me, other people have said that to me before. But on that day, I was ready to receive hearing it. He told us to dive right in, don’t think about it take action. The hardest part is to start. So I did just that, while I was on tour singing in Hawaii – there was a hurricane which left me there for 5 additional days. I locked myself in the room and wrote my book in 4 days! It was so liberating.
Q9. What hobbies do you have?
A. Singing, dancing, and watching movies.
Q10. Do you have a favorite coffee shop?
A. I go to a little coffee shop called Rev Coffee shop in Smyrna GA, I go there to work sometimes and hold meetings the energy is just right. I am a tea woman! Give me my green tea and a good book.
