About Me

My photo
New York, New York, United States
.Everything happens for a reason and when we least expect it. Not one to wait for things happen, I tend to push for what many call IMPOSSIBLE. I am the self published author of "Broken Promises Never Mend" which is currently on amazon.com. I am very proud of my accomplishment seeing as though I was told many times that I cant do it and also that I shouldnt do it. I go against the grain and can be a rebel of sorts. My intentions are good and I always usually win in the end. Not one to stay idle, Ive also been an entrepreneur and created gift baskets, scented candles and incense for many customers and have been blessed to even have gifted celebrity clients such as Nicole and Boris Kodjoe of Showtime's hit show "SOUL FOOD". I thank you for networking with me and God's Blessings! ~Essence M~

What I Want Aint Usually How It Is!!!

I sat in the dark and cried..... I said why doesnt he love me back. I thought it was something special. I most of all let down my infamous WALL and let him in..... Why? Why me? Why not US? Its because its not of HIM.. Much like everything else in our lives, we have a blueprint and if its not in HIS plan, we wont succeed. I am a true testiment of that. So much has happened in my life but the things that mean the most to me are the things that I've worked the hardest at and have accomplished. My children, My writing career, LIFE in general has been something short of CRAZY but Im making it........

The other day I stepped out on FAITH and TRUST and I am moving progressively forward with my second novel, Bound By Lies. When I made the decision to take what was mine, I was nervous and was up until 4am but that adrenaline rush was something that caused me to say "Ok, this is what Im doing and Im going to make it work for me!"

Anything worth it is a struggle and while my journey is far from over, I know with TRUST and FAITH I will make it.........

Inspiration....... Or Lack There Of!


Greetings folks! It is I, Essence coming to you live from my laptop and boy oh boy does it feel strange. The last time I was here I spoke on all thats happened with me during the summer. Well Summer is pretty much over and business will resume as usual. Guess what? I am soooooooooooooo excited about whats brewing. Thank GOD for inspiration. I mean Ive literally been writing in a notebook with a pen and Ive got my next book under way....... Im more than sure I've got at least 4 chapters already which says alot. That book will be ready for July 2011! Im on a train to success and Im not stopping!!! Of course there are some days where I just dont get into the mood to write. When I do, I just listen to some music or even take time to read some of my literary divas books.. Lately Ive read Mahogani P's book, and the Shyt List collection by the Cartel Publications. Next on deck is A Hood Chicks Story by Shonda Devaughn. Reading and writing gives me life........... So Blessed to be able to do what I love and be around those that inspire and support me! So All........ I'll probably be blogging during my hiatus since I'm addicted to what is my lifeline (blackberry) and letting you know first, what Im  up to. Must get my sophomore novel done and out to my supporters......
BOUND BY LIES (DATE TO BE AANNOUNCED AFTER THANKSGIVING)
Be well my lovelies!!!
