Well, thanks to Mahogany (where the hell is she!) LOL....I may be signing with a new agent tomorrow. There's some minor stuff to work out, but at this moment, it looks like a "GO". And I really like him. ALSO....I just saw the VIDEO documentary about me, "Kola Boof: Nile River Woman"----and I'm assuming that they will have that posted online by next week (earlier than July 1st). It's an hour long and I can't wait for you guys to see it. It's pretty good.

You're most welcome, Kola! I wish you the best of everything. Where the hell am I? 1. Back in the 'Burgh after 8 days in Florida visiting my mother who has breast cancer. She had a radical mastectomy a year ago, the prognosis is not good and she is planning to retire early. I'm handling her legal affairs. 2. Living in front my laptop. On deadline (2 reviews, 2 interviews, all due Monday, at the latest). 3. In spite of #2, still planning to go out tomorrow night with the girls to a new spot in town for the grown and sexy, so as to recover from #1. 4. Got 2 corporate clients for my side writing biz. Ka-ching. ("Sleep? I don't need no stinkin' sleep.") 5. Falling really, really hard for a really good man. Scaring me to death. THAT'S where I am. ;-) |

Mah, #3 had me confused...at first I thought you were taking your daughters to a nightclub... (Obviously, I don't get out enough! LOL) Good to "hear your voice" again, tho. All the best--try not to get too overstressed and overbusy. |

Mah, Glad to see your business and romantic lives are rolling along. But I'm sorry for your mother. I'll pray that she, you and your family are kept in loving comfort and peace. |

Thanks, ABM and Vette. Yvette...for future reference, let's do it like this: my girls=my daughters my Girls=my girlfriends my GIRLS=my (not so) bodacious--I mean, who can compete with that Kola Boof around--ta-tas HTH! |

Mah, So then, if one follows the logic and math of what you reference to here, one should be able to easily determine your definition of "my GIRL". HAHAHA!!! |

Mahogany. God bless your mother. I wish her all the best,and pray that God navigates you in how to deal with the process. It won't be easy, but you will come out stronger. Again, I pray God blesses your mother. ____ Hope I didn't jump the gun on announcing this about Nicholas---but he was REALLY impressed with the first chapters of "The Sexy Part of the Bible" and he loved "Flesh and the Devil" and we had a nice long, very easy going phone conversation--chatting as though we've known each other for years---and his youth, hunger and success rate with his other clients, especially Cora Daniels (whose book I loved) make me have a lot of faith in him. If we can agree on a "final" REP Contract tomorrow---then it's done. But I am VERY excited and really think he's just what my career needs. Big Break: Also just found out that a SUPER MAJOR newspaper is going to review "Flesh"----because of a very famous American writer who wrote a letter on my behalf. Of course, it will take about 3 months to be published--but a major book review just as I'm arriving in New York City would be the exact Credential that I need. Stay tuned. Again--will be praying for your mom.

IT'S OFFICIAL!!!!!! Nicholas Roman Lewis and I are working together as Agent and Author!!! He's wonderful. He LOOOOOVES my novel "The Sexy Part of the Bible" (the literary novel, not the Pop novel) and we're going dead-on with that one starting in September when I turn in the final version of it. Thanks to all of you for your good wishes. You really are my family. Kola

Congratulations Kola. I got my $25 as well. And the Laurel and Hardy card. Thank you. I will use it to order one of your books on Amazon. Best of luck with the agent.
