Book Update (Blame It on The Music)

For the people who've been wondering about my book release, I still don't know exactly when it will come out. I am completely finished writing and it's also been edited. There is a hold up on my end because I keep learning more about self-publishing. I took this route because I wanted to be independent with my work. I decided to take my time because publishing is a business. I want to make the proper business decisions when it comes to my book. This project has been a stressful journey but I welcome the responsibility. I plan to become a wealthy, best selling author off of Blame It On The Music, so I will properly prepare. I'll admit I didn't know what the hell I was doing in the beginning and I'm still not completely savvy in this field. It's a humbling process that has prepared me for success. With all of that being said I hope people who are interested in my book still support it when I'm able to share it with the world. Also I have started a Go Fund Me campaign to assist with the publishing costs, I appreciate any help I can get.

Black History: August 29th (Remebering Micheal Jackson and Katrina)

 

  

Today is an important day in world history. Its the day that the King of Music Micheal Jackson was born. This guy left a great void when he passed away. He is a person who was vilified while alive and he's celebrated in his death. Despite the alleged controversy surrounding Micheal, his music will live forever.

   

Also a tragedy took place on this day ten years ago, August 29, 2005 Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans, Louisiana. It was a deadly disaster, approximately 1,833 people lost their lives as a result. I can still remember the images of dead bodies floating, survivors grabbing anything they could to float on. They were literally holding on for their lives, the roof of the Superdome barely stayed in place. So many people lost their homes, belongings and loved ones. It was a reminder that the government could care less about the impoverished blacks who dwell in the ghettos across the country, in my opinion. Kanye West spoke out and voiced his thoughts saying, "George Bush doesn't care about black people." So many people had to leave their hometown and live all over the country.  The media covered the entire thing as if it was a movie. The people of New Orleans will never fully recover from the tragedy.
