    DeBerryandGrant says

    In a moment of pique and frustration Virginia wrote an open letter to Oprah, and shared it with a few writer friends who are going through the same thing we are. Now the letter has started to go viral--getting a lot of repostings and inclusions in blogs, newsletters and on Facebook, so in case you hadn't seen it, we wanted to share our plight, the plight of many black authors with you, readers who have supported us all these years. http://twomindsfull.blogspot.com.

    In reality Oprah is just a metaphor--a name that might get this subject the attention it deserves. Because when you have a publication like Library Journal listing their 31 Best Books of 2009 http://ow.ly/HDU7 and the "genre" fiction list includes Street Lit --8 books but no category for contemporary African American writers, we are really in trouble.

    We are trying to encourage diversity in reading--we believe books should be windows, not just mirrors...

    Hi All! Hey,

    Just getting connected with my fellow Kimani readers. I also wanted to tell you that my latest Harlequin Kimani, Meet Me In Paris is a September release. It’s been getting good reviews on Amazon and was listed as one of Harlequin’s Top 10 Best Road Trip Reads for the Summer. Romantic Times gave it 4 stars, so you might want to give it a try. Simona.

    I have always loved the authors that wrote for Arabesque and developing the Kimani Press line allowed me to find out about more authors that I had no idea were out there! It is the direct place to find these wonderful books and to purchase them with no hassle. I get the latest books by my favorite authors and my new favorite authors before they hit ths stores or any other online bookstore. I am a avid reader and joining this club keeps me up to date with my favorite authors books and the with the other great authors out there that I didn't know about.

    I have followed the Kimani line since the inception—the year 1995-Pinnacle Books, Arabesque Books, BET Books, and now Kimani Press. I have added to my favorite author’s list, but the following authors have remained true to form. Rochelle Alers, Gwyneth Bolton, Loure Bussey, Adrianne Byrd, Carmen Green, Gwynne Forster, Donna Hill, Brenda Jackson, Sandra Kitt, Francis Ray, Maureen Smith, Altonya Washington.
    Happy Anniversary!!!
    Here’s too many more years of fabulous books.

    America K says

    The Author of this book America King(alias Kevin Lee)is historically one of most important people of this century. With heritage that include Mohamed Ali, Coretta Scott King, Supreme and more . Being the first man reincarnated makes America unique if not iconic figure in american society .The last reining King (King George) of the 19th and 20th century . With the King reaching acurate age
    he steps back in family business . His love is music playing a behind the scenes role as ghost writer for many years . Now helping the future take Hip Hop to the next .... with a chapter included for everyone in the entertainment industry .
    So remember "The Children are the future and the future is bright"
