So follow me on the Hollywood Deception Red Carpet Tour.

Donna Hill began her career in 1987 writing short stories for the confession magazines.   Since that time she has more than fifty published titles to her credit since her first novel was released in 1990, and is considered one of the early pioneers of the African American romance genre.  Three of her novels have been adapted for television.   She has been featured in Essence, the New York Daily News, USA Today, Today’s Black Woman, and Black Enterprise among many others.   In 2010 she celebrates her 20th anniversary in publishing.

So Donna, tell us…
Would you rather find true love or be filthy rich?
Well, if I was filthy rich I could buy me some love!

Would you rather sing in the rain or dance in the streets?
Definitely dance in the street.

Complete this sentence – If you were stranded on an island…I want to make sure I have my man and my Iphone.

Now, listen to a brief excerpt from What Mother Never Told Me

What Mother Never Told Me is the long-awaited sequel to Rhythms that brings Parris McKay face to face with a past that has eluded her and brings two women into her life that have their own troubling issues with their mothers. It is a book of hope, heartbreak and healing. A book for every woman, daughter, mother, every family.

This month is poetry month and my main character Hailey Barnes is going through a lot in her life. I wrote a poem that will express some of her feelings about her relationship. Kandie Delley is also celebrating the release of her new book Curtains, so since her spot is one of my stops on the Hollywood Deception Red Carpet Tour, I thought I would share a poem I wrote.

A wise woman once told me that when you hear great advice, heed to it. I can count on Angelia Menchan to dish it out on a regular basis. She doesn’t tell you what you want to hear; she tells you what you need to hear. I’m honored to have the Hollywood Deception Red Carpet Tour make a stop on her blog.  

 I’ve put in a lot of sweat and cried many tears, but all of it helped position me to where I am today.
