| Publisher Description: This is a book about my life the way I see it some of things that happened to me during the course of my life I feel have made me the person that I have become, I find myself wondering what I could have accomplished if I had someone to guide me to do some of the things that I wanted to do as a young lady or perhaps someone to tell me things that I had no knowledge of while I was growing up, I also wonder would I or my siblings would have become if we had someone to motivate us to do things in a different way, we all have gifts that never came to surface due to not having anyone to help us or support us in ways to express the gifts each one of us have, or just how to focus, it took me so long to write my first book which is something I enjoyed since I was a young girl living in the Rock Well Gardens projects, I would stay up and write at night I would put my thoughts on paper I would just fantasize about things that was on my mind, I loved reading books especially romance novels, I had a subscription to Harlequin Romance, I couldn't wait until I got the next one out of the mailbox, that's what I did most of my childhood I somehow found a way of getting lost in the chapters of the books I read, I felt like it was taking place in my own life, I could place myself in some of the places as though I was really living the life that was being described in the book that I was reading. One day when I was writing one of my books I was telling my daughter Phyllis about an event that I was writing about I said something to her like it was me doing it in my life I got so caught up in what I was describing then I had to shake myself it made me laugh, I had to explain it to her that I get so involved in what I am writing that it feels like I am really there in the moment of time and place that I am writing about I feel like I am the one who is making the decisions or saying the words to the other person who I am having a discussion with in the story, it's so good now to know that I got it in me to write I was so surprised when my first book got published it inspired me to write again it made me believe in myself that was the one thing that happened to let me know that I had what it took to be a writer, I felt like writing a book that I started after my first book was going to be easier I was going to tell the same story from the male in the book point of view from the first book, I was going to write it the same way with a different prospective on how the man in the story viewed the relationship, therefore the second book was supposed to have some of the same incidents because I didn't want to start from scratch with another book at least that's what I told myself, I had started a couple of chapters then somehow it just wouldn't flow I couldn't get it to go in the direction of the first book when I decided to let my mind take the journey it wanted to take it started to come to life when I changed the course of the book then it started to develop into its own book, I hit a wall at first because I didn't know what to do, I decided to write a book about me to give myself some time to think about how It should flow then when I revisited it everything came to life.
