Rest & Renewal plus Tall Story
Writing and editing can cause eye strain (I somehow forget to blink when I stare at my computer and smart phone!) so my family dragged me away from my tech tools. This gave me a chance to be a fangirl and catch up with one of my favorite TV shows, What We Do in the Shadows.
Star Vampire cameos from What We Do in the Shadows Episode 7:
Top row shows Danny Trejo, Evan Rachel Wood, Wesley “Blade” Snipes. Lower left is Tilda Swinton, Paul Reubens (Pee Wee Herman)I also got treated to Avengers: Endgame and of course I’ve been watching Game of Thrones.
Tall Story – She’s 6’8, he’s a 7 footer from Indonesia.

Basketball Jones and Woke Music History
Remember this name: P. P. Arnold. In 1966 at the tender age of twenty she went over to England, recording with the greats of British music: Mic Jagger, Cat Stevens, Rod Stewart, the band Small Faces and Barry Gibbs.
P. P. Arnold – Then and Now Patricia Arnold sang backup for the Ike and Tina Turner Revue, and traveled with them overseas. She quit the tour in 1966 and stayed in England, noting this: “A young black woman on her own in America in a white environment would not have been treated as well as I was in England.”
Pat’s UK hits included “Angel of the Morning” which became a big hit in the US for Merrilee Rush and country singer Juice Newton.
For more on P. P. Arnold’s legendary musical history, please visit her website: https://pparnold.com/biography
In later posts I’ll have more info on black women who made music history, since two of my novels deal with groundbreaking fictional singers (Jukebox Vol. One and The Queen of Comedy)

B-Ballers
One on One excerpt:
Rhea had already decided that a quick hug would be appropriate for his chivalry. Lean in, squeeze and separate. Only she hadn’t figured on Yohan catching hold of her hand. He held it a beat too long while stepping backwards, as he if wanted to pull her to him. That moment in time, a sort of shy indecision made her words pour out. “You-you . . . I mean, I’ve got some strawberry wine coolers upstairs and-and video games. We could play Fortnite if you want.”
His brows rose and quickly lowered at her offer. Fuck playing Fortnite. ©

Aquaman and an Indonesian baller
Got treated to dinner and the film Aquaman by my family. We all really enjoyed the film.
Jason Momoa as AQUAMAN. Amber Heard is Princess Mera, and his love interest. The visuals were great, and James Wan should be commended for his direction and vision on the picture.
Director James Wan. He was also at the helm of Fast and Furious 7. Aquaman AKA Jason Momoa brought a playfulness and his usual smoldering hotness to the character.
Other standouts imho were Yahya Abdul-Mateen II as Black Manta, Amber Heard as Princess Mera, Michael Beach as Manta’s dad, and Nicole Kidman as Queen Atlanna.
Upcoming new adult ebook:

Boo’d Up
Color me happy that the 2018 Grammy Awards nominated “Boo’d Up” in the categories of Song of the year and R&B song of the year. Honestly, Ella Mai should’ve been nominated in the best new artist category. The voters also recognized the talent of H.E.R. for album of the year, best new artist, best R&B album, song and performance. Another fave of mine, Maren Morris, is up for Record of the Year for “The Middle.”
Kendrick Lamar and Sza have also been nominated in the same category for “All the Stars” (from the movie Black Panther) along with Donald Glover’s “This is America.” It will be exciting to see which tune the voters choose.
