631. Have you read BEYOND COLOR yet?---Here are the first few paragraphs: It took only moments for the entire rood to erupt in flames. Within minutes, fire and smoke had engulfed the wooden house where the Malette familylived. "Wake up, Harold!" screamed Josephine. "The house is on fire! Quick, get Gabriela outside." Harold Malette gathered up his sleeping, fourteen-year-old daughter and guided her out into the night air where she would be safe away from the flames and smoke. Gabriela began coughing and crying, so he held her close and said, "You're okay now. Be strong." Harold panicked when he did not see his wife, Josephine. "Don't go back inside!" the next-door neighbor, Glorya Amour, yelled. Her husband, Victor, tried to restrain Harold while screaming, "Man, don't be stupid; you know you can't go back in there!" Harold ignored their warnings, pushed Victor aside and rushed into the smoke-filled house. He found Josephine slumped by the bedroom door. As he picked her up in his arms, whorls of smoke and flame lapped at his face. The windows shattered, the roof exploded and collapsed. The sounds pierced through his body and everything turned red, and a moment later, black.2007-09-03 Post A Comment

632. When I was a student in High School in the late 40's, I was told by school counselors that Negroes don't write, so my dream of becoming a writer was shot down. When I retired, the dream of writing returned. I enrolled in the UCLA School of Writing (extension) and in the past 10 years, I have written 3 novels and have just finished writing my 2nd book of poetry. I am a living, active witness that dreams need not die, they can be deferred. If the passion is there you can follow your heart. I call my work Historical Factional books because they are based on stories handed down in my family. When my work was not accepted by a few publishing companies, I became an independent publisher and produced my own books. Check them out: MAMA ROSE, I LEAVE YOU MY DREAMS, BEYOND COLOR and a book of poetry, LISTEN MY CHILDREN. Let me know what you think. Joy & Blessings! Bernadene2007-09-04 Post A Comment
