I'd like to suggest my book as one to give to others. My new novel is Billion Dollar Winner - The Novel. The story of Valencia (Val) Banks Freeman. Chicagoan, WestSider, Malcolm X College
graduate, Owner-Publisher of BlackSide Press, the largest community newspaper
in the city, Community Activist and winner of one billion dollars from Lotto-50;
the first entire All-Fifty-States lottery. What? An activist winning the lottery?
How can that be? True Activists don’t buy lottery tickets. They protest against it.


Billion Dollar Winner tells the story of what happens when one of the main
individuals who protested the loudest against the Lotto-50 lottery game turns
out to win the very lottery she so actively disparaged. Will Val remain true to
her activist nature? Or will the love of money which is at the root of all evil
change her and make her the hypocrite everyone calls her when they find out she
won the money? And just how did someone who never bought a lottery ticket in
her entire life come to possess it to begin with?
