A few weeks ago when I posted new photos on Facebook, I received comments about my twist-out. I want to introduce to you some women who have been instrumental in my hair transition. I love the natural hair community on Youtube.com. Hours have gone by with me clicking from one channel to the next, absorbing these sistas’ natural hair journeys. If you have recently decided to go natural or you have been natural for awhile, please “subscribe” to these channels. read more

I have not really been good about blogging or journaling my natural hair transition. One reasons has to do with busyness, and the other reason is sometime last summer I finally “Got it.” Up until August of last year, I had spent so much money on different hair products, trying to figure out what to do with my hair texture. While the product line is expensive, I hit the mark with Carol’s Daughter. The products do last about 3 months for me, sometimes longer. Really depends on how often I wash my hair which is more often during the summer.
Twisting my hair and letting it air dry is pretty much the same method I have been using for the past year. The only difference is now that my hair is longer, I keep the twists bigger. Every once in a while, I may do a twist-out, but I keep my hair protected with the twists by pining my hair back or wearing it in a ponytail. A few years ago, I gave up on wearing ponytails and opted for a short bob cut. Now, I’m happy to have enough hair to pull back into one. LOL!
I decided to blog about my favorite writing tools over the next few weekends. You may use some these tools too. If so, please chime in to tell me what you like about them (or not). I’m also trying out screencasting, so when I’m able, I will provide a short demo. read more
Getting early and regular prenatal care is important for a mother and child’s health during a pregnancy. I have not given birth to a child, so I can’t describe or share a conversation about pregnancy and childbirth. What I can share is this month, I’m starting early and preparing for the birth of my debut novel in nine months. When Rain Falls, the first book in the Victory Gospel Series, will be released March 2012. As I prepare for the book release, I’m also writing the second book in this series, When Memories Fade. There is a total of three books in the series. Here is some text about the series. read more
I’m working behind the scenes on the Victory Gospel Series. It’s been an adjustment (still is) to focus on the debut novel promotion, When Rain Falls (March 2012) and write the second book in the series (thinking of changing the title now).
