I am a mother of 3 beautiful children, engaged to be married, and currently looking for a publishing house for my book. I am a newbie to the game, and would greatly appreciate any feeback from my fellow writers and professional authors/poets. I love writing, because it gives me the chance to release my creativity on paper, by bringing characters to life one word at a time :-)
Do you have any published books:
I have a book coming out in Spring of 2009, titled Hidden Confessions
Why did you join this group?
I want to connect with ppl who have the same interests as me
Imperial Ink is proud to announce the Spring 2009 release of Hidden Confessions by Lakia McDaniel. Pre-ordering will be available February 2009.
Matthew was always known as a ladies' man ever since his teenage years. By the time he went to college, he had fallen in love and given up his player's card when fate had him cross paths with Lisa. After graduation, things were going exceptionally well for Matthew. He had everything he had ever hoped and dreamed for. A great career, wonderful friends, and a fiancé he planned to marry Christmas Day. After reuniting with some of his long-time friends of the past, and in the midst of wedding preparations, all hidden secrets unveil. What was once unseen and unknown now brings about betrayal, love, lust, heartbreak, pure disorder, and even danger, which is sure to change everyone's lives...forever.
Lakia Nichole McDaniel is engaged, with three wonderful children, and makes her home in Baltimore, Maryland, where she was born and raised. Lakia debuts as an author with an immense amount of passion for writing and delivering to readers characters that they can relate to. She wants for her readers to be inspired, and just as entertained.

Greetings Lakia and congrats on your engagement. You might take a look at the Black Author Showcase for more publishers. I see several folks have mentioned some of our members, like Jessica Tilles.
