Accomplishments

Authored three novels:

Myles to Go,

…Myles to Go, Book Two – Beginnings

…Myles to Go, Book Three – Lessons and Truths.

…Myles to Go, …Myles to Go, Book Two – Beginnings, and …Myles to Go – Lessons and Truths. Filled with over 300 cultural references and teachable moments, my novels revolve around a God-fearing African American family that leaves 1962 Georgia for the south side of Chicago. My novels detail the trials and tribulations of the Myles family, their lives, loves, and the people (good or bad) that make them what they are. Myles to Go, Book Four, is scheduled for publication in late 2026.
