Queens Public Library Event - Online Event - January 15, 2025.

The Self-publishing process involves many dynamics.  Each panel member expressed gratitude for this alternative to the traditional publishing options.  

In addition, each panel member shared their current authentic navigation of the publishing industry.  No one has had distinctive and direct discrimination issues, however, we have gained strength through collection development and community partnerships.

Anniversary Celebration: Encounters and Reflections - Can you hear me now?  Glory to God!

*Reflect:
embody or represent (something) in a faithful or appropriate way.
think deeply or carefully about.


January 20th is significant to me for several reasons. First, it is Dr. Martin Luther King's Birthday Celebration! A Federal holiday has been delegated to honor Dr King jr. Dr. king had a moral pulse of humanitarianism that influenced millions across the globe and most significantly in America.

Today, I also celebrate the first published book that I was inspired to write. I am thankful to all individuals , especially my immediate family, who have encouraged and assisted me on this journey. I pray that the light of any book I am led to write will rise and shine and give God Glory!

REFLECTION - THE YEAR OF 2024

"There is a time for everything,
    and a season for every activity under the heavens..."  Ecclesiastes 3:1
REFLECT
THINK DEEPLY OR CAREFULLY ABOUT


The end of a year is a good place to spend some time thinking deeply about your experiences, accomplishments and desired goals.

I am in the process of this type of reflection and I am providing a few journal prompts that maybe helpful for you in your process of contemplation, prayer and Bible Study.


What experiences were most significant to you in 2024?


How might you have done things differently in 2024 given the opportunity?


What are you most excited about for 2025?


How will you seek to learn more about our Creator God?


How might your life reflect your relationship with the Lord going forward?


Compare one of your past spiritual experiences in 2023 with one in 2024.

It was a pleasure to discuss faith and theology with Buddist Vegas K Jarrow aka Vijay R Nathan, librarian and poet.   My Christian faith was the main inspiration to write the books: "Encounters and Reflections" and "Encounters and Reflections II".
