It's been awhile, folks. Sorry. I've wanted to post this for several weeks now . . .
In May, the world lost the celebrated African-American author and poet Dr. Maya
Angelou. As a way of confession, I’ll admit I was not too familiar with her life
or her work. Sadly, such is the way of someone like me, someone so narrowly focused
on their own genre, their own tiny niche, that they miss the shining stars in the
writing universe.
With Dr. Angelou’s passing, I saw the vast public outpouring
across the media outlets and wanted to learn more about this Pulitzer Prize-nominated woman who had touched
so many lives.
