An author's talk with #AuthorASnorton moderated by DaKisha Payne Williams

If you are a readers, member of a bookclub, a fellow author, as well as a member of the Winston-Salem State University community along with the Wake Forest University community, this event is for YOU!

The author (a Wake Forest alum who is now based in Atlanta) will discuss his books which cut across the topics of poetry, sports, thinkpiece/journaling, and testimonials/stories of impact, as the books he'll feature include 8 months of mercy: scenes with a social introvert (poetry based) and nothing Minor (which focuses on his work in the game of baseball). As a featured author or speaker at events including (but not limited to) the Carolinas International Book Festival (Greenville, SC in 2025 and 2026) and the Mississippi Book Festival (2017-19, 2022-23), he is a steady and respected presence in the literary world along with the larger community.

The moderator (a Winston-Salem State alum) is an educator and entrepreneur along with being a community advocate via her work as a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. and other entities. Her sound insight and presence provides a positive energy and atmosphere given her related work (including speaking engagements).

The event is open to the public.
