A finalist for the Gala Dynastie Author of the Year for my Afro-Caribbean, LGBTQ-themed crime thriller, JAM RUN.

As a youngster, I grew up watching Mutsumi Takahashi on @ctvnewsmontreal.bsky.social. I never imagined that I'd write a crime thriller and she'd read it.

Hey, friends,

I'll be in Toronto on September 27-28, 2025, at David Pecaut Square–Tent 30, Zone B–autographing my spy thrillers and murder mysteries.

If you enjoy edge-of-your-seat suspense thrillers with conspiracies, martial arts, sex, betrayal, and revenge, then come see me.

Thanks.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.
Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of.
They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.

While the rest of Canada celebrates Victoria Day weekend, I'm in Ottawa selling my books at two different markets each day while #writing another at night. Am I stressed? Absolutely not. #writinglife #authorsofinstagram

5–24 inch box jumps, 10–50lb goblet squats, and 5 handstand push-ups. 7 total in 12 minutes. A month ago, I barely made it to 5 reps in 12 minutes. A new PR that killed me. The photo is the spot where I died and dissolved into the floor.

Imagine doing 12 of these with 50lbs. Then increasing to 60, 70, and then 80lbs. #squats #squatsfordays

These are moments I cherish. Marilyn became a true fan after she read one of my books, and then bought the rest. When I told her she'd have to wait until the next one comes out, she settled on a picture to make her sister jealous. #books
