Author Information
I'm a Single Mother of three beautiful children, my son 19 years of age, Blaine Austin Williams, I have fraternal twins McKayla and McKenzie. I grew up in Houston, Texas but my foundation was built in Angleton, Texas and Navasota, Texas. My parents are divorce. My parents are from the country. I was able to grab hold to some of their values, morals, strength, survival skills, stillness and perseverance. I have three sisters and one brother. My life has been full of rejection, fear, welfare denials, housing and down to my last $5.00. I grab my pen and paper and began to write letters myself and asking myself deep soulful questions. I knew I had been playing small with my gifts and talents. I always excel at anything I've tried to do. Because, I trust God with everything. Hope was always there to pull me out. Being a rape victim it was God who comfort me. Being a broken single mother it was God who gave me comfort, strength, guidance, protection, provided and a fresh new start. I thought I had to a Degree to succeed in life to go to my next level. To become an artist. This is what I heard all the time. I didn't have the education or the correct grammar but I was born with a gift. God always showed up. God has created something new inside of me. He knew I was full of knowledge, full of answers to pull people out of darkness. I heard a quote from Lisa Nichols, you're more than enough, right where you're are. I decided to pick up my cross and write my story of freedom.
