Author: 7th Sign

I'm an author who has written four poetry books, Blurred Vision, Hindsight 20/20, Honesty Box and most recently, Stingrays. I released my first novel, Fortune Cookie, in 2015 and I'm finalizing the follow up, called No Cream In The Middle, for a July 2017 release. I enjoy helping other writers reach their goals, which inspired me to launch my own publishing company, 7th Sign Publishing.

The Sum of Our Stings and Things

I released my fourth poetry book, Stingrays, about two years ago. At that time, I had only released the book through eBook format only. Now, for the first time, Stingrays is available in paperback through my site for a holiday discounted price. The concept of the poetry in that book details how certain situations in […]

Get Loose With The Blue Goose Diablo

I just discovered Blue Goose a few months ago. Since then, it has become one of my new favorite Tex Mex restaurants. Recently, I decided to try one their margaritas called The Diablo. I know; sounds pretty scary. However, isn’t it fascinating that a margarita is such a year round adult beverage. When was the […]

The 12 Days Of Crumble Giveaway

I can’t believe we are just 12 days away from the close of 2018. This year has definitely been a whirlwind to say the least. This has also been one of the most creative years for me in terms of writing. It’s funny how life’s trials can push you to do things you didn’t think […]

Things We Never Said….Until Now

Well, here it is. I keep saying this is the best and worst book I’ve ever written. Our darkest moments give us the best inspiration…which is exactly what happened here. However, the events that led to the writing of the book alone were difficult enough to wrap my brain around. Honestly, Eleven: Things We Never […]

They Didn’t Know….But Now We Do

This time of year is filled with holiday music celebrating the Christmas season and the birth of Jesus. You may recall the review I did of John Legend’s A Legendary Christmas collection. In keeping with the cheerful holiday theme, there is another new tune that you need to add to your playlist. John Patrick Adams, […]

A (John) Legendary Christmas

Considering John Legend’s successfully decorated music career, it’s hard to believe that he just released his first Christmas album. A Legendary Christmas is a mix of traditional classics, sprinkled in with some original numbers. Oh and if that wasn’t enough, Raphael Saadiq was at the helm of the album’s production. Of course, it wouldn’t be […]

Cyber Monday Is Here!

Now that we’re all fighting off those lingering calories from Thanksgiving weekend, it’s time to start the holiday shopping deals. So, it’s only fitting that I have some special deals for Cyber Monday online shoppers. I am very excited about the third installment of my novel series, When the Cookie Crumbles. I will be sharing […]

Lessons From Broken Glass

Last week, I heard about a story on the news of a neighborhood restaurant robbery. Honestly, the fact that the robbery was near me was what made me even pay close attention to it. A 28 year old male decided that it would be a good idea to break into a restaurant early in the […]

25 Years of Doggystyle

Snoop Dogg has the kind of career longevity that most artists dream of. November 23, 2018 marked the 25th anniversary of his most prolific album to date, Doggystyle. This comes right off the heels of him recently receiving his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Although his subject matter may have been gangster related […]

Mariah Carey: Should We Proceed With ‘Caution’?

I guess we can’t quite call it a comeback. After all, Mariah Carey has been here for years. In fact, her career has been so prolific that she has recently been nominated in the 2018 Songwriters Hall Of Fame (along with Missy Elliott). She’s arguably the biggest selling female artist of all time. Her range […]
