    Make Merry....

    "Better your anger and fears flow like ink from a pen onto the page, or paint onto a canvas, than blood on the sidewalk. Better your blows strike the faces of drums or cords of melody, than the faces and backs of women and children!"

    - Nathan M. Richardson, Poet & Author

    Dear Book Lover:

    You may not know me or my novels, because I am a member of a growing band of African-American writers of literary fiction who are slowly disappearing. And not because I am lacking in talent and credentials; in fact I have already published a number of books with major publishing houses and have been reviewed by national newspapers and well-respected literary journals, and have received critical acclaim and awards for my efforts. My work has been hailed as vivid, thought provoking and brilliant. I have been compared to Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Zora Neale Hurston and Gloria Naylor.

    The fact that my novels may disappear is not due to the downward spiral of the economy or the pound of flesh it has taken from the book-publishing industry. No, my demise began long before the floor of the housing market began to rot away and the stock market crashed through.

    Why?

    I don't rightly know why publishers market fiction written by African-Americans ONLY TO African-Americans - but it has become common practice. And by doing this, they've placed all AA authors in one box forcing them to compete for the attention of ONE audience.

    The word that has been coined to describe what is happening to AA writers is: Seg-Book-Gation

    Segregation is an abominable practice no matter how you slice it - but when you apply it to art -- it becomes a sin. Art of any medium should transcend color, race, class, religion and ethnicity, but alas, that is not the case in the publishing world.

    AA literary writers like myself are being pushed out of the industry all together as we are no longer able to secure book deals, because publisher claim that AA readers are only interested in buying books about sex, street-life and drugs. We know that this is not the case. We are a diverse people, interested in a variety of subjects.

    On January 9th, 2010, my debut novel, SUGAR will celebrate its 10th anniversary. In order to commemorate this occasion It is my great hope that this moving story of friendship and acceptance will sell 10,000 copies between now and the anniversary date.

    Please try your best to purchase from an independent bookstore. It was the independent bookstores that made SUGAR the instant success it was 10 years ago. But if you're unable to do so, then place your order with AALBC or Amazon.com

    It is my dream that the surge in sales for this decade old novel, will send a message to the publishers that we readers desire ...crave and DEMAND a variety of literature from our AA writers because our stories are just as riveting, thought-provoking and universally appealing as the stories coming from our non-African-American counterparts.

    Please purchase at least one copy of SUGAR for yourself, a friend or family member. Cut and paste this message into your email program and send it out to your list. Tweet, Blog, Facebook and Myspace it.... !!

    Thanking you in advance for helping SUGAR make history!



    P.S.

    Send a picture of yourself purchasing a copy of SUGAR and I will post it on my blog: www.firstborngirl.blogspot.com
    Send your photos to: bernicemcfadden@hotmail.com and please include your name and the name and location of the bookstore.

    Hello My Sister - thanks for everything you do - still in debt to you

    so I thought I'd share a new birth with you - less than 24 hours old
    a short love poem - isn't she lovely!!!!


    Last Thoughts Before Leaving


    Getting on the road to go now
    Seems like I'm always on a journey
    into the future and wondering how
    I'm gonna make it on my own
    But blessed to be traveling with
    my mini me with me

    Hugging him like I did you tightly
    And you've got a blessing too
    So please do the same with
    your mini you

    Just don't let the love go wasted
    Cause it wasn't just about the physical
    Our connection was divine and spiritual
    And if not to be shared with each other
    then who better to show this to
    than the two most like me and you

    Promise to teach them how to love

    Just a quick shoutout to say, Hello. I've not had time to read much lately other than
    try an interpert what is happening in Health Legislation in regards to Health Reform.
    Much to absorb and no one knows what the True Bill will be. Next month is Diaster
    Preparedness Month so we are doing a series of community presentations in that
    regard as the Hurricaine Season is in full swing! But working on a film short and two
    books of inspirational poetry in the "between time". Longing to read your new book
    in full and wishing you and yours much fun and happiness as summer cames to it's
    ending.
