EDC: What genre are you most comfortable writing?

ARC: The genre I am most comfortable writing is inspirational poetry.

EDC: What is your book about?

ARC: From Mourning to Morning is a book of inspirational poems and devotionals

that helps the reader transition from pain to praise.

EDC: Why did you write this book?

ARC: I wrote this book out of obedience to the Lord. He wanted me to write this

book so that others would know that despite any loss, God is a healer, friend and a

restorer.

EDC: What is the message you want others to get?

ARC: It is my hope that readers will gain the blessed assurance that Jesus truly

comforts the brokenhearted, it is okay to grieve their loss, but don’t stay there too

long, and to know that Jesus has a plan of restoration and renewal just for them. It

is important to know these things so that they will not allow the enemy an open

door so that he can try to shipwreck their life.

EDC: How would you best describe your writing style?

ARC: I would best describe my writing style as God-Breathed.

EDC: What is the one thing you want readers to walk away with after reading
your book?

ARC: The one thing that I want readers to walk away with after reading my book is

that God gives them a new beginning with each new day. They should never give

up on their dreams despite their loss or disappointments.

EDC: How did you come up with the title of the book?

ARC: I did not come up with the title; the Lord told me what to call the book.

EDC: Do you feel that people need this kind of book to succeed? Why?

ARC: I personally do not feel that people need any kind of book to succeed except

for the Bible. My book is not to take the place of the bible, but to be a supplement

that guides the reader to the understanding that Jesus loves them for who they are.

EDC: Who are you targeting with your message in this book?

ARC: I am targeting anyone who has suffered any type of loss for example, loved

ones, their dreams, aspirations or goals.

EDC: Do you feel as if more African Americans are reading motivational books
or street fiction?

ARC: I believe that there is a market for both in the African American community.

The most important thing is that our community read.

EDC: Who are your two favorite authors and why?

ARC: Langston Hughes is one of my favorite authors because he had the heart of

the African American community. I fe

l in love with his poetry when I was ten

years

old. I recited his poem My People for a talent contest and won. My second

favorite author is Dr. Myles Munroe. Dr. Munroe, has such a deep, fresh insight

into the word of God.

EDC: How does your family and friends feel about your book venture in general?

ARC: My family and friends are very supportive and excited about how God is

unveiling his plan for my life.

EDC: Do you see writing as a long or short term career?

ARC: I see writing as a part of my ministry which is a life time commitment

EDC: How do you feel about self-publishing overall?

ARC: My experience with self-publishing has been incredible. The Lord has

ordered my steps and the end product was done in the spirit of excellence that He

deserves.

EDC: Are you working on any more titles?

ARC: I have several books that will be written in the future. The next one will be a

self-help book to provide individuals with practical tools to help them discover their

gifts.

EDC: Do you wish to be carried by a major publishing house one day?

ARC: I believe that the Lord will have me to be carried by one of the major

publishing houses one day.

EDC: What is the next big venture for your company?

ARC: M2M4

Him

Enterprises will be a sponsor for FraserNet PowerNetworking

Preview Series and the Transformation Expo hosted by a Radio-One local station.

EDC: Has this been an easy journey for you as a writer and working female?

ARC: Frederick Douglass said it best there is no progress without struggle. This

journey has been one of faith and obedience.

EDC: What are the strengths and weaknesses of promotions for self-published
authors?

ARC: The strengths for self-publishing are that you own your work and you have

creative liberty and you keep all of the royalties. The weaknesses for self-

publishing is that you have to do the leg work in finding the distributors, copy

editors, graphic designers, etc and you get a percentage of the sales.

EDC: What do you feel is one major benefit of being self-published?

ARC: The one major benefit of being self-published is that it is all yours.
