My stories came through a download from God. I was given 10 children’s stories all at once within a 2 month period of time. I didn’t know what to do with them until I met my new friend Carla. She used to work in the publishing industry and agreed to coach me, give me direction and support me as I moved forward in publishing my books. I literally did everything she told me to do and now I’m here, a published author who also runs a publishing company. Thank you God and Carla.

Unfortunately, the death of George Floyd. I just signed on with a company to facilitate an online class to teach children about textiles. When the company heard the news they reached out to the minority facilitators to come up with some Black history content to help the students who may have questions about racism. I ordered a little book on Amazon about quilting and the Underground Railroad. I used to teach quilting in our local homeschool community and as a part of the lesson, I would review the history of quilting and how slaves use to read the quilt blocks like a map legend to direct them toward freedom. My goal was to order a children’s book that I could read and then facilitate the making of a quilt block as an interactive activity. When the book arrived it was so simple and plain that after I read it my mind said out loud, “I can do that, I can write a little story just like this.” I gave God my “yes” and He gave me 10 completed Black history and multiculturalism children’s books, just like that.
