G-Spot Chronicles

Book Cover & Preview Text
My writing career began on the hallway walls of my mothers’ apartment in Garfield Heights Ohio. Reveling in my newfound ability to write, I decided that a red crayon was the right tool to make my mother proud. Mom was so furious; she gave me a can of cleanser, a sponge, and made me scrub the letters away. This was the start of the controversial moments that would pepper my writing life. Despite being pressured by my mother to study medicine and become the first doctor in the family, my desires were rooted in the written word. I spent all my spare time writing songs, poems and stories. In 1993, I met Betty Shabazz at Medgar Evers College in Brooklyn, (while I was studying Journalism and Print Media at Kingsborough Community College), and she encouraged me to follow my dreams. Shortly after, I wrote my first novella, Gravel, Paper and Glass, and began an endless array of personal writing projects, fine-tuning my craft. In the in-between time, I became a mother, that which topped the number one joy in my life: writing. I faced many a challenging moment during the beginning stages of motherhood, which included becoming homeless with my baby, but was able to overcome it all. While living in a shelter for battered women, I penned a comedic effort, one which I continue to fine tune, in order to be seen by the right talent scouts. So although life seemed to be showing me a bad deck, I found that my talents would not lay dormant for very long. In 2003, I finished penning a book entitled, G-Spot Chronicles, which immediately put me on the map with book readers and filmmakers, and all before the book would see a printing press. While publishers and agents were hesitant to touch the book, filmmakers Rodney Parnther and Roderick Giles of Clarendon Entertainment, asked me if they could produce films for the first two chapters. I gladly accepted, which made me the first writer in history, to have short films or otherwise, created from an unpublished book. By 2005, one of the films Clarendon Entertainment produced, The Marriage Counselor was competing in the 2005 Urban World Film Festival. Both films adapted from the book are currently available for purchase, as part of a new incentive called New Black Media (http://www.urbanslam.com). Now a mother of two, I not only continue to write books and attempt to collaborate with filmmakers to make films and/or cable network programming, but I composing music, to coincide with my material. I aspire to become the founder of my own multimedia company now in development, Koné Productions. I have recently had the privilege of having two of my songs featured in a film, “Apocalypse Rising”, a New Jersey-based filmmaker’s first feature film effort. Currently, I am also collaborating with other writers, to create soundtracks for their own books, while I continue to write my own books, cater events, make soaps and enjoy motherhood.

About the Book
G-Spot Chronicles is a black erotic book, which takes place in Bed-sty Brooklyn. It peaks inside the lives of 20-something African-American Brooklyn-born and bred friends.
Raymond: struggling to end his highly erratic, 'drauma-cidal' fling with Cassandra, a woman he is deeply infatuated with sexually. However, Cassandra possesses a mouth-watering demeanor, and her unwillingness to give back the keys makes it much harder to break up, than Raymond ever imagined.
Kim: separated, undersexed, and icy. She is on a quest to find her sexual self, and wishes to answer her inner pleas for gratification and sexual exploration.
Sharon: an erotic dancer, who gets involved with Shon, a womanizing porn publisher. He is a man she's had sexual desires for. An unexpected turns of events creates new experiences for Sharon and her best friend, Kim.
Petra makes her mark in life, by hosting in-house sex parties, where she is the only female participant. Petra is the welfare queen, who refuses to slow down her promiscuous ways, and constantly leaps into the pool of male testosterone, with both eyes wide shut.
Kareem: a slick-talking, outwardly quiet dude, with a hidden agenda. He and Raymond swap stories, beating one another's narrative experiences every time.
