So, my website is up. I got this amazing designer, Miki Fujiwara--check her out at www.urbanenvy.com. Not only does she have mad talent, she quick and really professional. Kudos to Miki for all the hardwork and TLC she put into my website, it's very appreciated.
I finally bit the bullet and joined MY SPACE, so you can also get details on the book at www.myspace.com/thesistahood.
FOUR months till the book is released. Meanwhile, I'm learnng a lot about Marketing and PR. If I don't sell books, there won't be another. However, I only want to create real hip-hop fiction that speaks to young women of color. I remember so many times when I was a little girl, loving to read but never seeing myself or my barrio. So, THE SISTAHOOD is my tribute to girls like me. Many folks just don't read, I think it's because youth just don't see themselves reflected.
So, in my efforts to KEEPIN' IT REAL. I would love feedback from folks about which book cover you like. Atria won't let me change the picture, but I do want to work with fonts and color. I chose the one with the red background. You let me know which one you like best. What would you change? Add? Please post your comments on the blog or send me a note at Efierce@thesistahood.com. Thanks for your support.
i think the cover with the red wall... the gurl who is holding the mic by her mouth.
