It’s 11:11 and instead of making wishes I’m up smiling thinking about the art that’s gonna be bomb when I’m done processing the hurt you put me through …again. I thought we were done with the back and forth the junior high games… Why can’t you make up your mind Why are you so freakin’…

& Happy Mon(Daè) -002
The Steelers didn’t make the Super Bowl this year so I didn’t watch it. I figured I’d catch the commercials on Youtube and I’d flip to the channel when the halftime show was on and boy it didn’t disappoint. Bruno and Bey killed it! It wasn’t like I was expecting anything less. Let’s just say…
& Bound to Be
I do not remember life before writing. It’s always been a constant in my life. Growing up I was always drowning in a sea of books. The Braddock Carnegie Library was our afterschool program and our summer camp. During the school year they helped us with our homework and in the summer they taught us…
& Word Robots
People are paying me to write! This is fun! I gotta tell my mother. This is great. I’m going to write about this and that and I’m gonna change the world… okay maybe just change someone’s mind.About three years ago these were my initial thoughts when I started getting paid to freelance write.

& Pittsburgh’s Women ‘n Wine LadiesFest
Around the same time last year I found myself in the same space with one of my best friends sampling wine from local wineries in Pennsylvania.

& 2016 Subscription
If January is a free trial of 2016, I’m already ready to buy the real deal. A lot of awesomeness has happened so far into 2016 and I’m strapped in ready to see where this roller coaster called life happens to take me. Young African American women in the Pittsburgh area don’t get a lot…
& Chess
We’re like a game of chess and instead of protecting our Queens, we’re protecting our hearts…again. Because the scariest thing about loving someone is they not only have the power to make you smile from your soul but the have the power to break every being of your spirit. You move one way, I move…
& Happiness Hunting
First and foremost, Happy New Year! The first post of the year is always the hardest but I figured I’d tread on something lightly like New Year’s Resolutions. If you ask me the age old question, “Where do you wanna be in five years?” The answer has always been “happy.” Life is all about discovering…
& This Christmas
My Auntie Kitty always has at least two Christmas trees and more than two dozen people in her house. Christmas is her holiday. My mother’s is the fourth of July Thanksgiving is always a surprise here lately. “It’s too much food. Too much money.” 10 children and 28 adults That’s the count this year for…
OMG It's Just Daé
