My Career:

Author and Educator

My Accomplishments:

Recently, I won a grant, two years in a row, to produce and perform in a collaborative play: Diary Of A Mad Black Feminist.
Of course, I am also proud of my debut novel, E-Males, which has a five out of six star rating on Amazon.com. Lastly, my creative nonfiction story, Before We Were Gangstas, won Honorable Mention in the New Millenium National Writers of Creative Nonfiction Contest in 2003.

Why I'm Here:

Professional, To Network, To Make Friends, To Share Ideas, To Learn, To Change the World

My Passion:

My passion has always been writing, which is second only to thinking in my book (pun intended).

My Hopes:

My work is meant to change the stereotypes about African American women. I want to reveal the diversity within our community to the world which currently focuses on just one segment (the ghetto) as being representative of us all. Once this perception changes, I think it will influence public policy which has been directly linked to society's conceptions of race, class and gender.

My Dreams:

My dreams are the same as my hopes. i want to be instrumental in this change.

What Else?:

I want to be a resource for other writers. Because of my background and experience in publishing, I can be a source of information for those who need support and advice.

NPR's All Thing's Considered

U.S.-Allied Sunni Groups Struggle Under Iraqi Control

The Sunni militias known as the Sons of Iraq, or Sahwa movement, were credited with helping to defeat al-Qaida in Iraq during the U.S. surge that began in 2007. They have fallen on hard times since coming under Iraqi government control a year ago, facing arrest and other troubles.

Iran Cleric's Funeral Becomes Opposition Protest

Further evidence that opposition to the Iranian government remains strong: Tens of thousands turned out for the funeral of a leading dissident cleric — Grand Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri — in the holy Shiite city of Qum.

'Three-Hour Rule' To Address Tarmac Delays

Starting this spring, delayed airliners must return to a terminal or face hefty fines. They must also offer food and water, maintain lavatories and provide necessary medical attention. The outcry over scenes like this one from a stalled 2007 JetBlue flight promoted the new rules.

Health Care Bill Heads For Passage

Senate Democrats won a key procedural vote in the early hours of the morning, overcoming Republican opposition to health care legislation. Two more votes loom before expected final Senate passage by Christmas Eve.

Bing Vs. Google: A Weeklong Experiment

James Fallows, national correspondent for The Atlantic and news analyst for Weekend All Things Considered, talks to Michele Norris about his weeklong experiment using the search engine Bing instead of Google to help him track down facts for his latest Atlantic article.

Brooke Astor Son Sentenced To At Least 1 Year

Meryl Gordon, author of Mrs. Astor Regrets: The Hidden Betrayals of a Family Beyond Reproach, talks to Michele Norris about the trial of socialite Brooke Astor's son, Anthony Marshall. Marshall and his accomplice, Francis Morrissey, were convicted of defrauding Marshall's mother of millions of dollars before her death in 2007.

Happy And Insured, Man Has Doubts On Overhaul

Dave Koenig has health insurance through work, and is happy with the plan. But as the health care debate drags on, he says he's losing faith in the overhaul plan. Koenig, who calls himself a conservative, says that at first he was open to President Obama's call to regulate the insurance industry to protect patients. But as lawmakers negotiate behind closed doors, and it's still unclear how much it will cost, Koenig is growing wary of the plan. And he's hoping his health insurance won't change when all is said and done.

Reporter Discusses Iranian Cleric's Death

Borzou Daragahi, a reporter with The Los Angeles Times, has just left Iran. He talks to Michele Norris about how the death of Ayatollah Hossein Ali Montazeri is affecting the opposition movement in Iran.

Eurostar To Resume Service Tuesday

Eurostar said it would resume its high-speed rail service linking Britain, France and Belgium on Tuesday after a three-day suspension that stranded tens of thousands of travelers. The traffic was suspended between Paris and London through the Channel tunnel as experts tried to discover what caused five trains to get stuck while attempting the passage on Friday.

Religion Finds Home On IPhones, Social Networks

Technology is producing a new form of religious interaction that pastors, rabbis and other religious leaders are embracing. There are over two dozen Bible apps for smart phones. And beyond Scripture, people are using gadgets for devotional purposes to enrich their lives.
