I can tell you from personal experience it gets a little tiring having to make the rounds on cable shows to explain 'what's up with black folks.'

When people come in the door and they have something, discovering and exploring the character is a real joy.

When it comes to fighting for freedom, those who are willing to fight should not be limited by our bigotry. Only rewarded with our gratitude.

I've no desire to start a movement, to be the first name on an open petition, or to be the poster child for disgruntled writers.

As a writer, as a storyteller, you have to have your emotions close, and the older I've gotten, the less I've worried about not displaying emotions.

I'm sorry, but chick fights are sexy. If you don't think so, you're either an uptight woman or a lying man.
