I don't let negative criticism, for the most part, bother me.

We get divorce, we get conned, someone we love dies, or we can't find anybody to love us or somebody breaks our heart and we realize this fairy tale ain't fair. So we suffer.

I let my characters do the talking, simple as that.

life is like a jigsaw puzzle, you have to see the whole picture, then put it together piece by piece!

Wherever there's a prison, for the most part, especially where there's Black people, it's overcrowded. I don't know who really gets out.

I was tired of chasing ghosts, hollow men who were outside my comfort zone, men who had nothing to give me except a rush. It was all I asked for, and all I ever got.

Folks want to glow, to leave their worries and dead skin behind.
