My Journey as an Authorpreneur

9/15/2018

SD Voyager sharing my story
of sharing our stories.

It is an honor to be featured in SD Voyager's Inspiring Stories series and to be able to share my journey as an Authorpreneur carving out my own path.  Everyone's journey is different, but hopefully I shared something in my journey that you can relate to or learn from that will help make your journey a little easier or a little smoother.  

Being an author is a journey.  Being a Black male author from Inglewood, CA where you don't meet to many other authors who can guide you on that journey has made it that much more adventurous.  And like everyone else's, my story has had its up's and down's, conflicts, and plots twists; and I have definitely met some interesting characters along the way.  But in the end, I'm eternally grateful to be on this journey and I hope my story inspires others as so many others have inspired me. 

You can check out the full article here or click the image below.  

And if you have any family or friends in your life aspiring to be an author or writer of any sort, please share this with them as they continue on their journey to share our stories.

My journey as an Authorpreneur has been full of many ups and downs, and twists and turns, and blessings and burns.  But today, I want to take time to stop and celebrate some wins.  

The ideas and concepts that flow through my book "Wanna Hide Something From a N*gga, Put It In a Book"continue to grow and be shared!
  • We've now made it into 5 Black-Owned Bookstores: 
    • 3 in California and 2 in Georgia
  • We're celebrating and sharing Black history and Black excellence in our communities with every book that is shared.
  • And ANY and EVERYBODY can be a part of that growth and sharing.
