David Miller - Raising Him Alone



Greetings!


Thanksgiving is almost here! Like many of you, I will be cooking dinner and inviting in friends and family for the weekend. After all the dishes are washed and food stored away, Black Books Weekend will start for me. I hope you will join me for four days of author readings, games and chat sessions. We have four marvelous gift bags for the bookclubs with the most members to join us on BAN Radio.


Follow our Black Pearls Blog DAILY for all the details, HERE. If you are looking for the next great gift book, don't hesitate visiting our online book and gift shop, HERE.

Happy Holidays!

As The Day Wears On - Collab with Yah

As the day wears on I get tired and tired
The world get more dangerous
And I hate to say it, but sometimes I wish I wasn't in it

I'm not trying to sound crazy but at one point the world will be destroyed
Everything that we now know
Will no longer know it's existence

Just because of people, power, and politics
and the need to be 1up on each other
We'll never be truly one whole unit
Attempting just to make it right

Some of the things can be in the dark
You can always wake up to a brighter day

Just some of my thoughts
As the day wears on

(This was a collaboration with one of my students, who is a boxer and aspiring vocalist. We wrote "As The Day Wears On" on 11.11.10)
