[image error]

Latrivia Welch, Warlocks: The Creole CovenOk. So now, I’m ready to talk about my first paranormal romance. Warlocks: The Creole Coven will now be the first book in the Laveau Coven Series. With the outpour of feedback from the fans, I realize that I cannot stop now. But before I start on the next book, we MUST talk about all the things that you love, hate and want to see more of in the next installation.

The entire conversation will take place in her exclusive private Facebook group, The Red...

Anatoly’s Retribution: Book Two Coming Soon – Just Not Today

Dear Fans,

Well, I’ve been offline all day, hoping to bring this book to you before my midnight deadline to keep my word of a drop date on Sunday.

Two hours before midnight, I don’t think it’s going to happen.

My first knee-jerk response was to give you another date, but I can hear the wisdom of my team begging me not to. What I can tell you is that the book is complete. We are working to make sure the final product is the absolute best that we can provide.

This is all on me. No one is else i...

Anatoly’s Retribution: Book Two Drop Date Pushed Back till This Sunday

 

[image error]

Dear Medlovians,

I know many of you won’t be happy with me, but I must push the drop date for Anatoly’s Retribution: Book Two from Wednesday to Sunday of this week. As many of you know, I lost my grandfather on the 11th of this month, and we buried him on the 21st. I needed time to grieve, and I needed time to help my family. I don’t want my work to suffer for it, so I won’t release it until we are finished editing it sufficiently. Sunday should be enough time to do the trick. I ask for yo...

Celebrating the Life of My Grandfather, Rev. Ivory Artis, Sr. (May he rest in peace)

“In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” John 14:2-3

 

I bet Daddy’s mansion is going to be huge! I know he’ll be there watching westerns, fixing a feast of BBQ and his famous baked beans and making the angels laugh with his thousands of stories when I get there. I can see his face, bright a...

Check out today’s radio show on Anatoly’s Retribution: Book One

[image error]

For the last two weeks, it’s been all about Anatoly’s Retribution: Book One.

To celebrate our readers, we had a radio show today.

So… we only got to answer about 25% of the questions out there today during my first radio show in over a year, but I can assure that we’ll continue each week until we get it all done and then we can start all over again with Book Two, due out on November 1st.  I’m battling a flu right now. And I hate that because I sound like a frog, but the show must go on.  So...
