2012 Brooklyn Book Festival

Ready, set, go!
(The art of selling)


 
Young gym teacher and seasoned media arts instructor. 
Both see the benefits of putting student before ego... 
My poster of a letter from a 16yrld to her absentee father,
 and this dad was very moved by it...
                                
   23yrld Edgar is from Honduras.
 He was on the ave n saw all the commotion;
saw my book n couldn't put it down,
so i gave him a seat... 
                                        

School officials make it a point to browse the Fest in search of interesting motivational youth book. And when they sign up for yours, it's a sign that the Dept. of Ed recognizes and supports the role of alternative in education...   
A teacher looking for a book to get her teens to reflect 
on their lives, 
while still learning...
                                       The art of selling...

 I like it when church members support my books. They know formula doesn't work and formalities don't pay the rent. Plus, young people are dealing with grown up sht, so they also know to find a keep it real book, then re-connect with what they threw away...



Thank you again to those who purchased my books, along with the interesting talks with browsers. I appreciate it all and hope you stay tuned for more of my book projects. See you at the next one! (Photos by Ocean Morisset....Who else?)
