Welcome! I'm very happy to have you here. Maybe you got here from facebook or myspace or google, but it doesn't
matter. What matters is you're here and I'm here. So let's chat, shall
we? I'm sure you're wondering about my name and maybe how to pronounce
it? Well it's pronounced (kwan-too a-mar-oo). Not so hard, right? As
you can see, I'm an author, among other things. This is my first
official website of my own, I hope you dig the decor. Let me take you
on a short tour.
So this home page is like the living room. It's where we chill on a super comfy sofa and chat about whatever is going on. My author page is my office. That's where I do what I do. What's that on the book shelf, you ask? Well that's just my debut novel ONE BLOOD. Go ahead, pick it up. What's it about? I'm glad you asked! ONE BLOOD is a supernatural suspense novel set in Louisiana (where I grew up) about a voodoo curse tormenting a group of people unaware of their hidden connections. Intrigued?
Well, there will be plenty of time for you to pick up the book. Let's continue the tour. The Blog is where I keep you updated on the life and times of this up and coming writer, as well as introduce you to some new friends of mine. The Poet page is of course, my bedroom. It's the most intimate space on the site, where I reveal my innermost thoughts and feelings about basically everything. What's in the closet? Why more poetry of course. Let's see...we've got facebook and myspace and blackonblackrhyme to name a few. I have a lot of styles in here...I like to switch it up, you know...keep it interesting.
Oh let's check out the iPod. Of course I've got my spoken word on there. Take a listen and let me know what you think.
So now let's venture over to another of my common spaces, The Pantheon Collective. You didn't think I built this big, beautiful space all by myself did you? Of course not. My roomies and partners Author Stephanie Casher and Author James W. Lewis helped me create this dream home. Go ahead, check out their rooms as well. They won't mind!
So now that you've taken the tour if you are interested in purchasing my novel or my spoken word CDs or poetry chapbooks, here is the place to do it. Yes, of course you can get these products all over the web, but often times the best prices are right here.
Oh no, you have to go? Okay, I understand. Well, stop on back anytime. Why don't you leave me your contact info so we can connect some other time and place? Sound good? Well just click here.
Take care!
