Greetings friends, I have completed the story of my next book. Now I'm editing, rewriting, pulling apart. The story was inspired by friends I have known on the internet for over ten years. The new title came to me as I was finishing my final sprint on NaNoWriMo (The National Novel Writing Month) last November. Tell them I Died Angela and her husband Bodine are retired and live in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Every day they talk to friends in Las Vegas, Memphis, Chicago, Darwin Australia,
Atlanta, San Antonio,
Los Angeles and
other places where their internet friends live. They all interact on
Blaq-Kawfee.com, until Angela receives a phone call from Carlton telling her that his mother, A1QTEE,
the owner/operator of Blaq-Kawfee died a month ago. Angela wants to know how it
happened because the details don't make sense and A1QTEE's ex-boyfriend flies
to Las Vegas
because he still loves her even after she dumped him. He doesn't believe
she is dead, and must get to her son to find the truth.. TELL THEM I DIED is romantic adventure that takes place on Blaq-kawfee.com, an internet forum website. The story is a senior citizen's internet romance gone wrong, at a time in their lives when two mature adults ought to know better. All the best to you, Sarah Motherless Child - stories from a life (click on book cover for an excerpt) Imagine you gave a baby up for adoption forty years ago, and after years of trying to find her, she finds you. Now come the hard questions. She's healthy, beautiful, and successful, but she wants to know why you gave her away and why you didn't marry her father. And there is also the unspoken question of "What kind of black woman gives her baby away?" How do you explain to her that giving her away was the best gift you could offer?
