Bedtime Inspirational Stories - 50 Black Leaders who Made History: Black History Book for Kids  (2020)
With the same commitment to continue inspiring our kids, I am very excited to introduce Bedtime Inspirational Stories 2: 50 Black Leaders Who Made History.
As with Volume 1, this book highlights the achievements and stories of notable black leaders who made history, from the eighteenth century to today. Our goal is to teach kids about black history while inspiring and creating the sparks of greatness and elevation that our kids need.
The stories in the book include those of political activists, scientists, artists, musicians, inventors, and athletes. They are written in a fun, anecdotal way, incorporating the information that interests children the most, which is the most effective method to influence kids to read.
Every single one ofthese individuals overcame adversity and changed the world, building a way for others to live better lives. Each one worked hard and maintained self-confidence, even when others expressed doubt or said their dreams couldnât be achieved.
This is a book that will benefit readers of all ages, races, and genders. It is a treasure to keep for life. Â
These emotionally charged short bios have touching and powerful life lessons that go into a childâs soul as they search for their place in the world.
Each story features its own âLife Lessonâ alongside a positive message, complemented by vivid, compelling art and quotes.
At the end of the book we have included a Gratitude Journal in order to help kids, as well as adults, to refocus on what we have instead of what we lack.

A Chorus Rises: A Song Below Water (2021)
Teen influencer Naema Bradshaw has it all: sheâs famous, stylish, gorgeous?and sheâs an Eloko, a charismatic person gifted with a melody that people adore. Everyone loves her? until sheâs cast as the villain who exposed a Siren to the whole world.
Dragged by the media, and canceled by her fans, no one understands her side: not her boyfriend, not her friends, not even her fellow Eloko. Villified by those closest to her, Naema heads to the Southwest where she is determined to stage a comeback⌠to her family, her real self, and the truth about her magic. What she finds is a new community in a flourishing group of online fans who support her.

And only Naema can discover the true purpose of her power, and how to use it.

Deathless Divide (2020)
After the fall of Summerland, Jane McKeene hoped her life would get simpler: Get out of town, stay alive, and head west to California to find her mother.
But nothing is easy when youâre a girl trained in putting down the restless dead, and a devastating loss on the road to a protected village called Nicodemus has Jane questioning everything she thought she knew about surviving in 1880s America.
Whatâs more, this safe haven is not what it appearsâas Jane discovers when she sees familiar faces from Summerland amid this new society. Caught between mysteries and lies, the undead, and her own inner demons, Jane soon finds herself on a dark path of blood and violence that threatens to consume her.
But she wonât be in it alone.
Katherine Deveraux never expected to be allied with Jane McKeene. But after the hell she has endured, she knows friends are hard to come byâand that Jane needs her too, whether Jane wants to admit it or not.
Watching Janeâs back, however, is more than she bargained for, and when they both reach a breaking point, itâs up to Katherine to keep hope aliveâeven as she begins to fear that there is no happily-ever-after for girls like her.

Lez Talk: A Collection of Black Lesbian Short Fiction ( 2016 )Â
âA necessary and relevant addition to the Black LGBTQ literary canon, which oftentimes overlooks Black lesbian writing,
Lez Talk
is a collection of short stories that embraces the fullness of Black lesbian experiences. Â The contributors operate under the assumption that âlesbianâ is not a dirty word, and have written stories that amplify the diversity of Black lesbian lives.
At once provocative, emotional, adventurous, and celebratory, Lez Talk crosses a range of fictional genres, including romance, speculative, and humor. The writers explore new subjects and aspects of their experiences, and affirm their gifts as writers and lesbian women.Â
Beginning with Sheree L. Greerâs âI Canât Turn it Off,â a short, powerful tale imbued with socio-political undercurrents, the collection also includes work from Claudia Moss, LaToya Hankins, Lauren Cherelle, K.A. Smith, S. Andrea Allen, Faith Mosley, and Eternity Philops.â
