About Me

F.R. Riggs founder & president of IMI Vision Entertainment, parent company of IMI Publications , which creates and promotes visual Christian Entertainment through plays, poetry, dance, and books. After writing poetry and short stories for more than two decades, F.R is excited about the new venture into the world of Christian fiction. With the backing of her Pastor, Overseer Hezekiah Walker, she steps out and goes after her dream of being a christian fiction novelist! In her debut novel, "The First Lady" she introduces us to Camille Brown-Owens, the woman hiding behind the big church hat. She's a preacher's wife married to everything but her husband Josiah. Trying to keep God's house in order, Josiah suffers when his own house succumbs to murder, deceit,and courtroom trials. "The First Lady" is a run away roller coaster that, in between turns, your prayers and gasps may cause you to wonder..."Do I know Camille?" Here's an excerpt from the upcoming novel.........********I didn’t want to go home. I don’t know what was coming over me, but I was still mad with Josiah and it had already been at least two hours since I left him screaming in the mall. I looked at my cell phone and like a good husband, he called every five minutes, and left all the messages he could until my answering machine wouldn’t let him leave anymore. As I stood there deciding where else to spend my time, I walked over to my car, got into it, and just sat there. I didn’t want to be anywhere else. I had no where else to go. This town had so few black people in it that wherever you would go, there would b someone you knew there. I guess it’s a true statement that black people love to congregate around each other. The tapping on my window was the only thing that broke me out of my self pity trance. “Would you like to go get something to eat?” *************So friends...that was a teaser. This book will definitely put faces to issues we NEVER thought happened in the church!!!!! VISIT the webiste and sign the guest book.

As always, anything good in my life was temporary. I would really bet my life on the fact that God had made a deal with the devil to get at me just as he did with Job. But to a sad change of events, I...
