The Waters’ are a strong, prominent black family in Philadelphia with access to the good life. Money, power, and lack of respect flow through the tight-knit family as destruction threatens to rock the foundation they are all trying to keep together.
Judge Waters and his wife, Lillian, work overtime to save their marriage, but when hatred and bitterness take over, all bets are off. Once the fighting starts, their children Keenan Jr., Naomi, and Saint go off into the world, wearing their parent’s drama as a coat of arms. They then lie, cheat, and steal, causing havoc in the lives they come across, just like their mother and father taught them to do.
Ultimately, damaging secrets and decade-old lies will all come crashing down around them. When death comes knocking, The Waters Family and their shattered fate hang in the balance, wondering what’s coming next . . .
What is the hardest part of writing
your books?
I think
the most challenging part of writing is having my work not be perfect for my
readers the way I see it and want it to be. I’m constantly making changes to
every detail.
What songs are most played on your
Ipod?
When I’m writing, I listen to a lot of
older rap music, such as songs from A Tribe Called Quest and Slum Village.
Other times, I listen to more current music from Somer Walker, Drake, and Nicki
Minaj.
Do you have critique partners or beta
readers?
I don’t now, but I will have a beta reader
for my next project.
What book are you reading now?
I am reading Carl Weber’s The Family
Business 6.
How did you start your writing career?
I started writing as a teenager but
stopped for many years until I found a Mary B. Morrison novel in 2008. From
there, I fell in love with the art of writing and never wanted to stop.
Tell us about your next release.
My next release is book two from my
Dark Waters family drama book series. There will be deeper storylines,
including drugs and violence. Book one was The Waters Family introduction; book
two is where it’ll all go down. I decided to do a book series while working on
a screenplay for my first feature.
