CHRISTIAN THRILLS US ONCE AGAIN!
Leaving us on one hell of a cliff hanger with The Black College Sabbatical - FALL QUARTER, Christian thrills us once again with the release of WINTER QUARTER. The saga continues with the crew Kyla, Cee-Cee, Tina and Ananda all arriving back at Heritage State University to initiate their second quarter of the Black College experience.

DARK REVELATIONS
What I feel is often revealed in the way I sigh
When hurt starts to commence…I have to real defense against my lack of pretense
No matter how hard I try.
What I feel is often revealed in the way I move
When pain is all my heart has gained…My every motion makes my world more insane
No matter the game…I seem to always lose.
What I feel is often revealed in the way I look
When sadness seems to consume every dark room…in my soul I lose all control
It’s like the stillness of my world has been shook… Continue

Writing Sample - Lost or Found? A Lesson in Hip Hop (Please Give Feedback on content & writing style!)
Many argue that the genre we’ve all come to know as Hip-hop has lost its way. What do they mean? They mean that hip-hop has moved away from the heartfelt fire that fueled the desire to lay a foundation that would give voice to urban culture. It has moved away from the fun of the everyday, fan fare-free street battles and into the lifestyles of the deeply dangerous. Moved away from love songs with a hard bass line to the ebonically challenged toe-tapers that glorify the art of rump shakin’. Moved… Continue

Isn't good to know that God has no dry seasons! Our sense of purpose is what drives us and keeps us motivated. My passion for what I am called to do is a continuous source of inspiration. I agree that it seems that when we're all tapped out, God seems to send that right person or opportunity to get us back in the drivers seat. That's why I wanted to be a part of this community. I needed to hear how other people are handling their assignment. I know what I am hear to do so I just keep going. But, I would be lying if I said I never have an off day, especially when it seems all of the resources I need to move my dream forward are lagging behind. I thank God that I have the experience of seeing God make a way out of now way, that I am able to press forward. In addition to being a writer, I am also an inspirational speaker and I come in contact with a lot of people who have never seen God work and they are hopeless and feel stuck in life. Somehow God anoints me to be able to encourage them inspite of their difficult journey. I remind them to stay positive and to surround themselves with motivated people who can support their vision. That's a little more for people who have not seen any success in their lives. Just wanted to throw the question out there because people are really looking for answers. Thanks for your comments.
