#OTD 5 years ago, I began working on a historical novella about James Armistead Lafayette. It's remained my best seller.
My next project is an essay collection of African American stories during the AmRev period (concept art below).

Photos from my return trip to Nassau a few weeks ago! Got to get a new pic with Woodes Rogers, and get myself all inspired to write the rest of his novel!
So much fun getting to tour the pirate museum again, hop on Blackbeard's ship, and relax on white sand beaches. Pirate capital of the world!
