Gentlemen prefer Bronze
I enjoy during research, and so I thought I’d share more vintage ads and photos portraying the beauty of black women that were produced by us and for us. Black folks reclaimed our image (see the ad below for an example) even during segregation.
There’s still a misconception out there regarding how black folks used to live. Far too many times Hollywood and even books portray us as downtrodden and usually in the position of a domestic.
No matter what (segregated) society may have thought or stated erroneously about black culture, we did our own thing. Part of which meant black women were thought of as sex symbols in our community even though mainstream media ignored beautiful sistas as cover girls.

RIP Chris Cornell and the Into the Badlands finale
I’m both shocked and truly saddened by the news of Chris Cornell’s death.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his family in their time of grief.
Chris Cornell, Grammy award winning lead singer, songwriter, guitarist for Soundgarden and Audioslave In tribute to the power and musical artistry of Chris Cornell, here’s a video of his cover of Michael Jackson’s “Billie Jean.”
The finale of Into The Badlands is this Sunday, May 21st
Will Sonny and Veil finally reunite? Or will Quinn end up raising baby Henry?
IR lovers Sonny and Veil from Into the Badlands At least ITBL will have 16 episodes next year. The Wuxia fighting on this show is fantastic. Love Daniel Wu as the stoic hero, a killer who’s faithful to the woman he loves, Veil. AMBW yeah!!!!!!
THE FLASH
Barry and Iris are still going strong, or are they? This season the show gave us Savitar (Emo Barry) who’s crazy with a capital C. Savitar has vowed to kill Iris, and that’s all I’ll reveal in this post.
Aw, so cute. Barry and Iris, from The Flash SUPERGIRL
I’m just mentioning the very short lived Kara had a crush on Jimmy Olsen. When the show was moved to the CW, that romance was nixed. I mainly watch the show for the Martian Manhunter scenes now.

New Feature – “Look for the Book”
I’ve created a new widget specifically for release dates, or rather, the week a book will be released.
Please check the menu on the right side, titled “Look for the Book.”
Pictured: Ronin Bey – Fire Drake, Ash – Hellion, Andre Santana – Alpha Werewolf, Karnage Xian – Gargoyle prince My goal is to get a better handle on the business side of self-pubbing, which includes marketing and release dates.
I created another promo for Sanai and Scott’s story. Sanai is introduced in At Last, as Torii’s youngest sister. Scott is the younger brother of NFL quarterback Kyle McClure. Kyle is the leading male in the IR ebook The Player.

CARNIVAL!!!!
The Trinidad and Tobago Carnival is next Monday and Tuesday. In honor of this festival, I’m lowering the price of The Player to 99 cents.
Trinidad beauty queen falls for NFL quarterback 
Ozzy is the ex-factor, from the ebook The Player Excerpt from The Player:
“I wish I could’ve seen you dance live back then.” He was sprawled on her bed with one of his long legs cocked up while the other was diagonal, his heel along the mattress edge. The way his legs were divided gave her a clear view of what lay heavy and thick between his legs.
The way his eyes got that dreamy look in them, like he was imagining a number of things with her in that outfit gave Harlow an idea. “Close your eyes. Don’t open them until I tell you,” she ordered. “You’ve been a very good boy so I think you deserve a reward.”
“I hope it’s what I think it is. But I may be wrong. Are you gonna do it? Are you gonna-”

Ones to Watch
I remember spotting Terence Howard, Oscar Isaacs and Idris Elba early in their careers, and having a strong sense that all three possessed star quality.
Here are four more potential stars imho, who’ve got the talent, looks, and charisma to succeed in the entertainment business:
Aldis Hodge:

Work it, Aldis. I could stare into his searing, big brown eyes all day, everyday. Aldis was just a widdle kid when he played Raymond in Die Hard With a Vengeance. Yes, this pic is Aldis, not his equally handsome brother (also an actor), Edwin Hodge
Aldis Hodge as Raymond in Die Hard with a Vengeance – Twentieth Century Fox Aldis plays the violin (for real). I wonder if he likes older women? 🙂
