Have You "Freed Your Inner Book" Yet?
Whew! It was worse than delivering my first born!
What You Need to Know About Me:
Having overcome many obstacles in my life, I started writing as a way of healing. Through sharing some of my work with a few close to me, I found that my words also inspired and motived them. Although we all had different exteriors, the pain, love, joy and fears we shared internally were similar in so many ways.

Black Tears

Emotional flood gates open and black tears gush over the valley.

The burden has become too heavy, the pain is now excruciating and the levy, too weak to handle the pressure has finally broken.

Screams of despair are released from within her mind and travel at the speed of light through the valley of her soul. The sound is so strident that the natural sounds of the earth are muffled.

As blackness over powers the light of day, a chill fills the air. The raucous sound of the raging flood becomes… Continue

Let Not the Silence be Unbroken

Let Not the Silence be Unbroken

Put down the hand that covers your mouth when you begin to speak about the pain your soul has been bearing for what seems to be an eternity.

Tear down the wall you have built around your heart that allows you to love only from a distance and never build a bond with those whose bodies press against the other side trying to get close to you.

Step out of your armor, put down your shield and learn to trust with caution knowing God will protect you from all harm.

God loves us
His love for us is a beautiful thing
It brings joy to our hearts
The love moves through our bodies and souls
A love thats stops us in our tracks, to feel the glory of God
We are uplifted, compelled to change our ways
To be better than good and live a spirit filled life
God's love has touched us
Inspiring everything and desiring nothing
That’s when our soul are free from temptation
To have faith and to keep it inside us
Helping others find Jesus and opening their minds
To be baptized in Jesus’ name, to be saved
To start them on the path to righteousness

SPAM IS SO NOT COOL!

Please do not greet everyone on the site with large images and announcements of your book or business. Yes, you want to tell the world, but learn the fine art of subtlety. A simple welcome and signature/link is fine. Let them ask you for more.
We have lost numerous members because of the amount of 'friend' mail they instantly receive. This Hurts Everyone.
Spam is unsolicited advertising, whether it is posted as comments on other members' pages or is emailed for marketing purposes.

Please be considerate. Post your advertisement in the proper Articles/Forum or Group. There are free classifieds on the Pages tab. You can post your information on your profile and even update your blog as often as you like.

We are not into censorship, so please don't make us ask you to leave. Be kind and unselfish - don't spam.
SPAMMING IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED

Long ignored, but serious in their own right - comics and graphic novels are often relegated to the children's table. That's NOT where I would expect to see Sin City! It's time to support our Black Comics.
