  <about><![CDATA[I'm a native of Savannah, Georgia. I grew up in the city's historic Sandfly District but also spent some years growing up in Washington, D.C.

My novel [book:Blood Kin, A Savannah Story] is the first in a series of four books based on stories my grandmother shared with me. She was a daughter of slaves and lived to be 100 years. It tells the story of two best friends who discover they are actually brothers and who endure quite a bit during the Civil War as they struggle to hold their family together. I'm currently in the process of working to publish the second book in the series, this one titled ISAIAH'S TEARS. 

In addition to being a writer, I also operate a taxi service in Savannah, which means I get to see much more of the city than most people and also enjoy meeting folks from all over the world. If you're thinking about visiting, please look me up.
