“Ever so welcome, wait for a call"
(West Indian proverb)”
Charmaine J Forde

Crystal Evans
“The difference between you and I Dre is that i can take a bad experience and make money off it, You just have to live with yours until time blurs your memory of the details.
Most writers i know aren't beautiful by society's standard. Writing is not modelling but Writer's do have beautiful souls.”
Crystal Evans, The Bunna Man: Joe Grind Series
