The idea for my third book, Ain't No Thug Like he One I Got, came from my publisher actually. She sent the title and gave me the freedom to write what I wanted. I sat down and gave thought to what story I wanted to tell, and the rest is history. It's a great book, and anyone who loves urban fiction will enjoy it!

After losing my father earlier this year, I realized that I wanted to write. Sitting down with my family and discussing my plans, I fully expected an initial resistance, but received full support. With their blessings, I then sat down and wrote my first book. After sending my manuscript to several publishing houses and receiving positive feedback, I decided to sign with Urban Chapters publications.

Well, as of this post, I have a book to be released on Friday. However, from the excerpts that 've floated around social media, I think my next book will be a work of urban erotica. It's an idea I've toyed with a couple of times in my writing, so I'll try my hand at it.

Take negativity with a grain of salt. Everyone won't look at your work as the New York Times best seller like you do. Use negative feedback as an opportunity to grow in your craft. Practice truly does make perfect.

The most effective method I've found would be to walk away from the book and do something else. Switching my focus to something else has worked for me.
