Well, I’ve been running from this blog post for quite some time. Since late 2018, I’ve toyed with the idea of shutting down my blog and focusing exclusively on my screenwriting. Writing is not easy by any stretch of the imagination. It’s

I’ve been working remotely for quite some time. I know you’re wondering why I have a photo of Winston Duke as the featured image 1.) it got you to come here and 2.) that’s how I used to lay in bed when

Homecoming was this weekend and I had a wonderful time. I haven’t been to homecoming in two years and had no plans to do so this year until my best friend talked me into it.  We went nonstop from 11 a.m. to

I’m currently emerging from the longest depressive episode of my life. Truth be told, I’m stumbling out of this bitch. Exclusive footage of me trying to recover from all of the wild shit that’s been going on since I turned 30. Over the course

I’m not sure that I have the capacity to unpack everything, but I’m going to try. The last few weeks, I’ve avoided accountability, transparency, and responsibility. Somehow I still have a job. February, March, April, and even May are four of the

The streets are buzzing. It has come to my knowledge that Lisa read my earlier blog post. She’ll be okay. There are a number of screenshots, group chats, and text messages circulating about me, some positive, some not so positive.  I even

I swear by Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, I’ll never be a maid of honor again. I’m going to try my best to be tactful with this story, but my God, it’s a doozy. It’s rare to find people, especially women are still

I really don’t have time to blog today, but I can’t hold this in. I consider it a personal attack when someone I’m interested in doesn’t text back. No warning. No explanation. No nothing, Jesus. Just silence. It’s not even the fact that a

Ya’ll. This is a wild ass story. I don’t even know where to begin, but my spirit says it’s time to release this past experience into the universe. I wrote about my Maya Angelou funeral horror and even opened up about the scary decision

God, I hope she never reads this. If you’ve been following me this year, then you know I’ve fallen off. I don’t write blogs as frequently as I should. I am late responding to Facebook notifications (primarily because I removed the app

This began as an Instagram post inspired by a tweet. When I sat down to write the post, it became too long-winded even for me. I rarely discuss fashion and beauty topics because, well, that’s not my ministry. God has made room for

Exclusive image of me counting the number of losses I’ve taken in 2017. While everyone else stumbled out of 2016 like Tina did in that epic scene from What’s Love Got to Do With It after laying the smackdown on Ike, I was certain

Photo: Why Did I Get Married Too I wrote the first sentence of this post and then got on Twitter, scrolled for a few seconds noticing a photo of Serena Williams’ baby bump. I had to RT. Then confirm. Screenshot. Proceed to
