What sparked your interest in writing?
I started writing at a young age. I was in grade school when I would love to write short stories. I loved using my imagination and being Creative.  I also started keeping a daily journal and writing about everything became something I enjoyed.

What is the inspiration behind your book “Don’t Be Afraid of Your Journey”?

As a domestic violence survivor, “Dont be Afraid of Your Journey” was a part of my story as a victim. I wanted to share my story with others to encourage them.  God has taken me through a lot and I wanted to share to help encourage victims and others as well.


Describe the process of creating and writing a book from start to finish?

The process of writing my books was not quite hard. I would say the challenges came when I needed to find a book title and also the length . My children’s books were the most challenging because of illustrations and really polishing your work. 4. How would you define your writing style?  My style of writing i would say is called going with the flow.   I do a lot of free writing and writing down my thoughts. After its written then i critique it. It’s a craft that shouldn’t be perfect but it should definitely be yours and unique. 


What can readers expect from you next?

I have a Empowerment journal called “Thoughts of Beautiful Faces ” that focuses on discovering oneself that is complete but will be published soon. I am working on my third children’s book to be added to my book series called The Adventures of Princeton & Ava-Paisley featuring my children as the characters. That will be published by the end of November.

The New Artificial Intelligence: Risk or Reward?

One of the most significant risks posed by AI is the potential for data breaches. AI systems rely on vast amounts of data to function, and if that data falls into the wrong hands, it can be used to steal sensitive information or launch targeted attacks. For example, a hacker could use AI to analyze a company’s social media accounts, email correspondence, and other publicly available information to identify potential targets for phishing attacks or other forms of social engineering. They could also use AI to analyze a company’s network traffic and identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited to gain access to sensitive data.
