The novel Kiss the Sky (Atria, 2009) follows the life of Sophie "Sky" Lee, a talented and torn woman who reunites with her ex-husband to take another leap towards stardom... one tethered by their use of alcohol and drugs; her co-dependent relationship with her manager/boyfriend; and all their fears and anxieties. On their side: great talent, amazing friends, and the luck of the road.
Rob Fields of the BoldAsLive.US community, which explores black rock, put together a showcase on June 13, 2009. I read from Kiss the Sky in between sets by California King, Shelly Nicole's blaKbushe, The Smyrk, and Honeychild Coleman + Pollen. Here's a bit of me talking about creativity, and then readin.
Thank you for sharing this video! I'm currently memorizing a piece of your history because our professor is currently teaching us about successful African American women through a book he had bought somewhere. it's very enlightening though i live in a country like the Philippines. Thanks again! More power to you and God bless! ^_^
