First, in publishing news, one of my poems was published in Kweli Journal at the end of September!! Go to http://kwelijournal.org to see the fruits of my labor!!

Second, starting tomorrow October 1st, I partner with New York Sports Club to kick off the 2012 Young, Fit & Fly High School Fitness Program! This intensive month-long fitness bootcamp will give sixteen high school students the opportunity to work with four trainers to reach towards their personal fitness goals!

Most exciting, I start this month’s performances as a guest poet on CEREUS ARTS’ The Revival Tour on October 5th, which promises to be an event you don’t want to miss! The following weekend, I am off to Philly for the Nor’ easter Exchange Reading Series. Finally, I end my b-day month with the 5 Boroughs The Art of Conversation NYC the day after my birthday!

I would love to share these experiences with you, so come out and bring all of the good vibes you can carry. I promise to get you lifted off of some heart shaking poetry!
