Connecting with a people through books


Writing involves utilizing the imagination and contemporary writer record history through stories. these stories while they are not about identifiable characters records history, culture and events. The contemporary writer has the responsibility to write so that future readers will be inspired and motivated to write.

Writing also opens up the hear and soul of one people and culture to other peoples and culture. These books reflect the inner longing for freedom, the pride of a people, the love of humor and the determination of excellence. They represent celebration the accomplishment of one as being the success of all.

Jamaica belies it size and population through its accomplishments and "Wha'a Gwaan Man?" got its title from non Jamaican desire to speak the Jamaican lingo and this is how ever so often a non Jamaican greets a Jamaican abroad. it is a tribute in poems and select writings to Jamaica, Africans and the motherland Africa.

"Walking Tall" seek to highlight the fact that when the wealthy and the poor are given equal opportunities in learning then wealth is of little value because ultimately it is the exam results that really matters in the end.

One of the eternal debates is who is smarter, the woman or the man? "For Love of Him" is a book of stories that highlights the relationship between men and women. These are fun stories and reflect the stories that one will hear while work is being done. Talking, singing or whistling being not a sign of idleness but actually enhances the work being done. It also  includes stories in which children are the main characters because children too have a story to tell.

#WorldPoetryDay

Today March 21st is #WorldPoetryDay. It is an attempt to keep alive a form of expression that is slowly being eroded.


Poetry allows you to enter the deep recesses of the soul and today can share my love for my native country Jamaica or put on your boxing gloves and enter the fight as I dealt with the many circumstances life brought my way in "Ready to Rumble" and "Set to Rumble".
