Kim McLarin's Reading at Hue-Man

Kim McLarin is plogging over at Amazon. Yes, that's plogging, and nope not exactly sure what a plog is. She has such a great voice. Check out some of her wit, sarcasm, and insight.

Her reading at Hue-Man was nicely attended. She didn't read for a long time, which was great. We adults sometimes don't have the longest attention spans. But the discussion/Q&A was really good. Her book, JUMP AT THE SUN, is about the complexities of motherhood and it's not a rosy picture. But it's extremely well-written and thought provocative. Shoot, I'm not the only that feels that way, PEOPLE magazine just gave it 4 stars and made it a critics choice. Although it's the main characters are black women, it really is a universal story.

A nice surprise, writer Bernice McFadden attended (see picture above). It's nice to see authors supporting authors.
