C&P about how piracy hurts the reader and the author
Book Piracy is Stealing and Stealing Is Not Okay
07/08/2012
by Tori
Recently, author Ellen Hopkins noticed that someone had uploaded an Advanced Reader Copy of her not-yet-released YA novel Tilt to a pirate site. She was, understandably, upset by this. Her book isn’t even out yet and people are already stealing it.
The problem isn’t ignorance. Most people who illegally download things like books know Read more of this blog post »

“I was molded into the person I became, but falsely believed it was all of my own doing. It’s been said many times, but bears repeating. A child isn’t born racist. No child comes into this world knowing what race is, or even ethnicity or culture, for that matter. All they know is that they need to be fed, given affection, and to rest. They crave love;”

“Whatever you do in life, do it to the best of your ability. That inner voice inside of you, trust it… it’s your intuition. It will guide you in the right direction. Try to be positive, ignore negativity, but if you see somethin’ ain’t right, that somethin’ is goin’ wrong, speak up. Live your life to the fullest! Cherish it… respect it. Live it till the wheels fall off! Write things down! Take pictures, pick roses with the thorns still attached so you can feel pain and see beauty all at one time… Eat chocolate cake ’till you’re sick, travel abroad, get to know folks who are totally different from you. Respect one another, too. Be the change you wanna see in others. Drink Gin Fizz and white wine with strawberries but most of all, the most important of all, ladies and gentlemen… don’t ever be afraid to fall in love…”

“The Black woman is the most adaptable, loving, loyal, strong, resilient, sensual, mothering, tempting ‘goddess’ on this planet we call ‘Earth.’ She’s the original Eve for all you Christians out there. The moon, the sun, the stars blush whenever she’s born.”

Tiana,Thanks for accepting my friends request! I really loved 'The Naughty Sins of a Saint'. I hope you plan to expand on this with more stories involving the White Knights of the Round Table. The teachings of this society are very enlightening and encouraging to black women like me. I plan to pick up 'The Slave Master's Son' soon. Keep droppin it like it's HOT!!!
Angela
Tiana, thank you for the friendship. Stay naughty,
Savannah
I'm glad that you enjoyed, "The Naughty Sins of a Saint". I just released yesterday, the sequel to this entitled, "When Saint Goes Marching In" and there will possibly be a third one (working on it now) and it will in fact delve more deeply into the White Knights of the Round Table - who they are, their lives, etc. I'm so happy that you also found it enlightening. Follow me on YouTube and Facebook to also see book trailers for upcoming and current novels you may not have read yet and want a 'sample' of. I also have contests and dialogues. Thank you for the encouragement and stay blessed.
