Greetings MySpace...
I'm a writer and rider! Put words on the page and feel the wind through my braids. LOL Ninja 600, stiletto riding, wordstress. Following Babee Sorse and living out a dream. Born, raised, and enjoying life in Tha Lou.
I'm an author. I self-published my first novel, Counting Raindrops Through a Stained Glass Window in January, 2004. I received a publishing deal and my first novel was re-published through Hyperion Books in September, 2005. My second novel, First Fridays, was released January 2, 2007. I'm working on my third novel and look forward to bringing it to you soon! I love writing and creating stories. I love discovering and trying new things and interests of others. And I love capturing it and documenting it all on paper (but don't worry...I won't write about you because I don't want to get sued! LOL) It's WRITE OR DIE, BABY!!!
I'm a rider. Got my first bike (Ninja Spice) June '06 and learned to ride and I'm loving it. I always wanted to ride. It's peaceful and energizing at the same time. The wind blows your worries away and relieves you of all stress. You're relaxed. It's just you, your bike, and the open road. I've felt nothing better. It's become my first love.
My bike name is 2Spicy because I'm on a slightly different path than most of my friends (college friend suggested it). I can be somewhat of a risk taker and a slight adventurist and thrill seeker. With every move and every turn, God has been with me. I love what I'm doing. I do what makes me happy and make every attempt to enjoy life to the fullest. And write about it.
I'm a #1 Lady Stunna. I love my Stunna Fam and my Stunna fam loves me (And if you see short jokes from my Stunna fam in my comments, that's their way of showing me Stunna Luv! LOL)
And as Stunnas say...
..2"If you can't handle your bike...DON'T RIDE OUT HERE!!!"
#1 STUNNA 4 LYFE
And I'm proud to be counted amongst the the highly Distinguished Divas of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Incorporated.
DST FOR LIFE (oo-oop!)
Be blessed and enjoy life always! This life is a gift and we only get one!

FIRST FRIDAYS
“It’s just business…nothing personal.” That’s Naja Rodger’s perspective in Cherlyn Michaels’ sophomore novel, FIRST FRIDAYS (Hyperion; January 2, 2007; Trade Paperback Original; $14.95). With a fresh plot that explores one woman’s attempt at balancing love with blazing trails on the predominately male business scene, this story is sure to uplift and empower, as well as entertain.
In First Fridays, Naja Rodgers is forced to pursue her entrepreneurial dream months before she had originally planned. At the urgings of her best friend, she attends local First Fridays networking parties to find a capable business partner to open an internet café in Mill Creek Valley—a working class neighborhood of St. Louis City. There, Naja finds the expertise and financial backing she needs in handsome, charming, and successful real estate investor, Russom King. Though the attraction is mutual and the sexual tension is explosive, Naja is determined not to mix business and pleasure and to keep their relationship strictly professional, for fear that bedroom to boardroom drama would interfere in the smooth operation of the business. But the excessive hours of working together breaks Naja’s resistance and as the business takes off, so does their seemingly invincible love affair. But slowly and initially undetectable to her, the take charge persona that drew Naja in, slowly transforms into Russ’ gripping control over both the business as well as her personal life. Naja soon finds herself with a loss of sense of self, disconnected from friends, and as less than a mere spectator of her own business dealings. Her dream starts to drift, along with Russ, and Naja is forced to decide what is most important to her: finding love, or pursuing her passion.
FIRST FRIDAYS is a story that ignites sexual energy and enchants with sultry romance. In addition to taking a look inside the relationship challenges of females on the rise, Michaels also laces the story with social issues such as literacy with the hip-hop generation and the support of businesses in Mill Creek Valley—the resurrected African American community that was the home of St. Louis’ own famed dancer, Josephine Baker. Cherlyn Michaels returns with another smart and sexy novel that readers are sure to find engaging and captivating.
“…her by-the-bootstraps story should garner for Michaels a loyal following.”
-PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“Michaels' second effort boasts a message of female solidarity and empowerment… Cautionary tale of one woman's struggle to control her own destiny.”
-KIRKUS REVIEWS
“Michaels weaves an ever-increasing tension into her story to create a truly compelling read with a satisfying ending.”
