WELCOME TO MY REAL SOUL LOUNGE. KICK BACK AND BE RENEWED!

About Me

Proud 2be a wife/mommy/stepmom, daughter, sister, play cousin, friend to the friendless ("i love lucy" fans will get it!). Love to laugh uncontrollably, the colors pink & orange, native of los angeles, ca, self-confessed procrastinator (getting better), recovering pack-rat, lover of life, left-handed & creative, adventure seeker, strong in my faith, believer in "following your bliss!" Okay, now for that other stuff... i am a television writer/producer(The Parkers, Jamie Foxx,Image Awards, One On One, and more), CEO of OneAccord Productions, Inc., creating projects for TV/Film/Stage that will encourage, inspire as well as entertain folks of all walks of life. I am completing a screenplay and have two TV shows in development and hope to share them all with you REAL soon!I am also an author (Real Soul Food & Other Poetic Recipes, pub. '95) and completing my second book (my next volume of p o e t r y & essays), and a performance poet, performing periodically with the "Poetry In The Key of Love Collective", a group of amazing sisterfriends I met while living in the DC metro area over ten years ago and we've been friends ever since. Our description: A graceful poet’s written/spoken expression infused with the beauty of an eclectic group of classically trained musicians/vocalists, create a sweet symphony for the soul. Literally speaking… a unique experience blending strings and keys, melody, harmony and poetry. I am still evolving as a woman/child of God and truly grateful for each day. My sweet daughter Amali Christine keeps me laughing, inspired and motivated to be the best I can be. I love to watch her just be. Oh, and I Love COOL hats! This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!

Music:

SOUL music!, R&B, Gospel, Jazz, Ol' School 80's-90's HipHop/Rap, show tunes (yep!), classical , any ol' soul records( Rufus w/Chaka Khan, Donnie Hathaway, Emotions, Earth Wind & Fire, Isley Bros, Frankie Beverly & Maze, etc.)... I like the real deal artists w/real bands and vocals, not that manufactured stuff they try to feed us on radio. IF IT'S "GOOD" FOR MY SOUL, IT'S MY KIND OF MUSIC... period. My taste in music runs the spectrum and I still enjoy my classic James Taylor, Santana, Tears for Fears (what?!! Shout, shout, let it all out!) Then there are musical geniouses whose music is just remarkable and indescribable like Vinx, Maritri, KarlaScott, Frank McComb and I'm also diggin' new schoolers w/ol' school soul like Algebra Blessett, Eric Roberson (good lawd!), Lizz Wright and many others. In time, the world will know what I know!
