Words and Wine @AngelaKayAustin #MemphisBlackArtsAlliance
You guys know some of what I’m going to share with you in this post, but maybe not all of it. As a child, books were a way for me to learn, as a young woman they were a place of solace, and now books are how I do all of this: learn, explore, Read More
What do you think about contests?
Okay, you guys know that I’ve never been a big lover of contests. I’ve never figured out quite where I fit. They always seem so narrow. I don’t write Sweet Romance, do I? I don’t write Erotic Romance, do I? I don’t write traditional Contemporary Romance, do I? Where do I belong? I’ve never discovered Read More

Emotional Holiday @AngelaKayAustin
Normally, during the holidays, I spend most of my time hanging out with my mother shopping for completely unnecessary holiday decorations because I have so many. Watching every holiday movie on TV. Listening to music that makes you ready for the holiday season. This year, it’s different. I haven’t purchased one new holiday decoration. I Read More
