so as you know,
or didn’t know,
i am writing a book.
i decided it would only be right to update everyone as i go on about this journey.
plus it will keep me focused on completing it.
this will be the first…
so i started jotting some ideas down in evernote last week at work.
i wrote a first chapter,
but i decided to scrap it for another idea that came to me in a dream.
yes a dream.
hush.
it’s going to be a story that i’m sure you all will love.
the biggest issue was getting out of my head.
i was so terrified to fail that i was trapped.
it made me stagnant,
but it also kept me with ideas.
i also want more than to be stuck at some job.
chained to a desk and being someone’s slave.
no good.
i want this book to be perfect.
well nothing is ever completely perfect.
i know for my first book,
it better be damn near!
an issue i’m having is a name for the character.
i want something really good.
this book is going going to be a series.
so i want this character and his life to expand as i go.
i’ll be looking into a few names before choosing one.
first and last name.
we will see how it goes…
thanks everyone.
i will keep your suggestions in mind!
Rooting for this
I can’t think of names right now, but I am looking forward for the book.

writing releases stress and is a great tool to grow i started a book in 2010 called the family affair that i recently picked back up and started working on again…i aim to get it published no later then spring of next year just for my own purposes….i’ve been a lover of writing since i was a child, it became my escape from the poverty and circumstances that were so common for me in philly…wishing you the best knock em dead

How about Seymour Butts?
Brandon Yates…u can’t go wrong with B
Give him a White name that is given to a lot of Black males like Marcus Davenport or Andre Thomas. Please don’t give your character a weird name. I was reading a black authored book and the main character’s name was “Blades.” Not even “Blade” like Wesley Snipes Vampire Killer “Blade.” Just “Blades.” WTF!?
