I've been a fan of Chaka since her days with Rufus. A long time ago, LOL

~ Love That Snow or A Southerner Moves to the North/East ~



December 8: 6:00 P.M. It started to snow The first snowfall of the season. The wife and I took our cocktails and sat for hours by the window watching the huge snowflakes drift down from heaven. It looked like a Grandma Moses print. So romantic. We felt like newlyweds again. I love snow!

CASTASTROPHES IN U.S. ARE ALWAYS LESS IMPORTANT - Darfur's Situation Is Disturbing, But Action Needed In U.S.


Reading Angelia Jolie’s call for action (in a Newsweek editorial) to the situation in Sudan, gave me pause for thought. And although Jolie has some valid points including, “Holding perpetrators of mass atrocities accountable is the best way to ensure justice today and peace in the future.” I wondered who do WE,… Continue

Hey Chrystal, I may have been a little facetious or sarcastic with that post. When I first met my love Brittney, I googled What kind of music does a 22-yr old girl listen to. My MBG post was sort of a follow up. (She loved the fact I went so far as to do this "research") I do appreciate your reply, & I want to assure you my intentions with Britt are completely genuine and of true intent. I LOVE HER! We've really hit it off and the age thing isn't really that big of a deal. I just don't want to mess it up and am interested in knowing more, not just</>about her outlook and take on life, but about the views & perspective of others in general. By the way, I am learning a lot. I'm expanding my musical horizons listening to artists such as Ne-Yo, Beyonce (to name a few) that i'm pretty sure I wouldn't have before I met Brittney. & She's probably listening to a little more De La Soul, I Vibes and Grateful Dead than she would have!

Happy Holidays!

You may not know me or my work, but I am the national bestselling, award winning novelist of six critically acclaimed novels who was twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction.

On Jan 9th, 2010 my debut novel, SUGAR will celebrate its 10th anniversary and in order to commemorate this milestone I am campaigning to sell 10,000 copies between now and that date.

“Bernice L. McFadden's first novel begins with the brief, poetic description of a crime so startling that the reader is helplessly drawn in, as if a bright red door stood ajar on a bleak and forbidding house. Pearl Taylor's daughter, Jude, has been found murdered and mutilated near a field at the edge of town. "The murder had white man written all over it," writes McFadden. "But no one would say it above a whisper. It was 1940. It was Bigelow, Arkansas. It was a black child. Need any more be said?" In the years that follow, Pearl catches sight of Jude in so many strangers that when Sugar Lacey comes to town and sets up her unwholesome "business" in the house next door, she doesn't know whether to believe what she sees in Sugar's face: a striking similarity to Jude, dead 15 years. In her sedate but supple prose--rising at times to a light, unforced lyricism in the description of landscape or character--the author perfectly renders the closed and protective society of a small Southern town, the superstitions, gossip, and prying.”


I’m asking that you purchase a copy of SUGAR for yourself, a friend or family member. And yes, KINDLE purchases count.

If you could help spread the word by blogging, twittering and Face-booking my campaign, it would mean the world to me.


Peace & Light,

Bernice L. McFadden
