About the Author: As a Sci-fi fantasy / fiction writer in general I absolutely love to be able to stretch my imagination as far as humanly possible. I prefer to write about Africa and African oriented concepts involving culture, tradition, and history. Historical speculative elements dominate most of my fiction work. As an African descended women I know we have a rich culture, and history to draw from. I refuse to be limited or relegated to only writing about thugs, criminals and drugs in the hood, black women belittled, or crime infested communities suffering from cultural amnesia. Born and raised in Camden N.J. I still traveled around the world to get a world perspective. Before writing Cosmic Beginnings I traveled extensively along the West coast of Africa to get a feel for my ancestral homeland to walk where they walked and feel what they felt, especially in the slave dungeons and castles along the coast of West Africa. Despite our history is much more then dungeons filled with misery it was a necessary pilgrimage to make to pay homage to those ancestors who came before me, and their spirit influences much of my work. It is an art form to just to be able to create my characters' personalities, and their environments, their political and social agendas is entertaining to me. To be able to create worlds and other realms takes a great deal of thinking outside the box, and that means you can't be restricted in your thought process or limited mentally, or spiritually. I give thanks to my ancestors because if it were not for them I would not be here writing in this capacity creating what I call Cultural-sy.
