So tomorrow is the big day, at least for me


Well, tomorrow is the big day.  Finally Silent Hearer will hit the shelves. Barnes and Noble pre-copies are sold out temporally before the release date. WOW!. So grab your copy while you can from Amazon or Tate Publishing


Today, I’m reminding myself of what a wonderful woman named Sis P said to me years ago in Guyana when I was going through a rough spot.  She said “Marcia never exchange a cross for a bigger cross, exchange a cross for a crown.”  Little did she know the effect those words had on me that day, it is one of my uplifting motto when things seems to be going to the left field.
Writing this first book was unbelievable for want of a better word. Now that the book is heading out into the world and on its own journey, I continue to pray that my story will touch others no matter what their challenges in life may be and hey will aim for their crowns.

Here are some snippets of what has been happening since the book has been published.
Hullaballo Books of Brooklyn, NYC was eager to host my first pre Book Signing events and it was a great success.

Guyanese Girls Rock, ran an article about the book and you can read it here
Thanks for your patience with my self-promotion on Social Media.  In these days of fewer bookstores and shrinking book coverage, we writers have learned to be pretty pushy. I’ve worked so hard on this book; I want to give it a good shot at reaching an audience. Because truly, I think that Silent Hearer will change lives and inspire people to look beyond their challenges.
Release is tomorrow, which is a kind of an end to the long wait to see what would happen to this book after sending off the manuscript that frustrating afternoon of October 21, 2014. 
The frustration is long gone and it’s an exciting time ! As always, thank you, my dear readers, for your enthusiasm, your support, and your encouragement, I appreciate it so much.

If you are in Brooklyn, NYC see you Sunday at the Launch Party!!!!
