Eric Jerome Dickey

I want to give a mention to one of my favorite authors. Eric Jereome Dickey is an amazing writer that gives his characters such amazing life that you feel like each person in the book is real. I have read about 8 of his books and can't wait to read more. Check him out on his website and on facebook:


You can find his books on amazon, book stores and even your local library.

RE: I'm in a Natural Hair Magazine!!

Good morning everyone,

Back in August of 2009, I posted that I was featured in a Natural Hair Magazine. I have finally added this magazine to the Naturally Beautiful Hair websites download page. Check out the magazine live on the site or download a copy for yourself. The magazine features many with natural hair. Check me out on page 145!

Turn your blog into a book

For everyone that has a blog, we have this great option to turn our sites into a book. I think this is a great idea. I may at some point decide to turn this all into a book for memories. To see how you can turn your blog into a book, check out the following sites:

I'm in a Natural Hair Magazine!!

Kitty Soulflower, who created the I Love My Locs networking blog, has created several Natural Hair Magazines. To see the magazines, check out her store front.

The magazines include images, stories, journeys and more - from various people in the natural hair community. I am very humbled and honored to be a part of this great project. To see my feature, and to also read about other naturally beautiful men and woman, go to The Big Book. Check out my feature on page #132.

Kitty has also been generous by offering a free download of the magazine.

Who is your favorite Author?


I love to read! But I have not done it in a while, because my book list is limited. One of my favorite Authors is Eric Jerome Dickey. He is a fabulous writer. I have never been disappointed by his work. But other than him, there are not many Authors that I am aware off. I need to expand my knowledge. Please let us know who your favorite Author is and why? Hopefully I will have a new list of books to look forward to reading. Thank you in advance if you have any suggestions.

Authentic Hair by Ademola Mandela

I saw this book about five years ago, when I went to New York. When I got back home, I tried to search for it, because I was really impressed by how the book was put together. So originally, I found it online for about $45 dollars. But I though... O' I will just wait until they lower price. But a few months later, I could not find it any where! It was sold out. So today, I did a search, and someone is trying to sell it on Amazon for $145! Ok, I like the book, but I don't need it that bad. Dang... :-P. Any how, I will keep my eye's open. It was a really nice book filled with pictures of people (a few celebs) with their natural hair. It includes passage and poetry. If I ever get the book, I will share more about it with you.
