Ghetto Chick eBook Release June 2020





Ghetto Chick is a book of poetry and writings that I wrote in 2009, after my failed marriage and entering into a relationship way too soon after my separation. 
In that relationship, I was encouraged to learn about the business of self-publishing. Eventually the relationship took different turns which prompted me to grab a notebook to begin writing about my experiences. 
The title, Ghetto Chick, actually came out of a heated discussion where I responded, "You don't want a nice girl. You want a ghetto chick." Hence the title was birthed. 
Ghetto Chick is some of my most honest thoughts of a woman, who was left by her husband, while raising two beautiful brown boys, taken for granted by her lover and yet she still sought after God through the hurt, the pain and the discouragement. 
So, why now? Why release Ghetto Chickin 2020, eleven years after it was written? The most honest answer is, because it's time. Ghetto Chickrepresents so much. It's my first self-published book. It's the soundtrack to my book Infused. It will be my first book that I create in digital format. In essence, Ghetto Chick is my baby, it's my heart. It was the beginning of me having the courage to speak my truth. I didn't know that then. I truly realize it now. 
I'm looking forward to sharing a part of me that was so broken over a decade ago that it led me to writing and to following my dreams. I can't wait to share the beautiful digital Ghetto Chick eBook with you.
