THE BATTLE BEGINS NOVEMBER 4, 2021!


AUGUST 17, 2020

Today was the original release date of my second book in the SETAPHIRE Series, Mandela. Setaphire is a celebration and commemoration of Marcus Garvey's life. It’s Quirky, historical, an African American young readers coming of age saga. An ode to Black history.

Due to the pandemic, I opted to release it on August 17, 2021. That’s not the only book I was going to release this year. Last year, I completed two young readers novel. The other entitled, Cassius X Luther: BCE II. Cassius X Luther: Before Common Era II was scheduled to be released on November 4, 2020.

My current projects this year include a stage play and a screenplay. I do not believe in discussing project-in-progress but I will give a sneak peek into Cassius X Luther: BCE II and the third book in the SETAPHIRE Series.
