Good Girl Gone Bad (Contemporary Fiction)
by Danette Majette
Release date- April 8, 2009
ISBN 10 – 1934230669

Most people think when you say, “I do,” all problems come to an end. When happily ever after seems impossible, three women transform from good girls to bad women. Just when they think they’ve made it out of the grimy streets to a more ideal lifestyle in the suburbs, their lavish lives turn sour. Unfortunately, for the sexy threesome they are all suddenly faced with financial hardships that land them between a rock and a hard place.

A New Conversation with Men by Michael Taylor
“Men hate each other because they fear each other, and they fear each because they don’t know each other; they don’t know each other because they are often separated from each other.” —Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Is it possible to: Teach men to become great fathers? Encourage men to become better husbands? Teach men to live with passion and purpose? Get men involved in improving their communities? Join entrepreneur, author, motivational speaker, and radio-show host Michael Taylor as he shares how creating a new paradigm of masculinity can help heal America. This book is written to inspire men of all ethnicities, ages, socio-economic levels, and religions to come together to redefine manhood and to eradicate the multiplicity of challenges facing America today. Its intention is to remove the separation among men and remove the hatred, fear, and distrust that too many men feel about each other. It is a powerful, inspirational document written to educate, motivate, and inspire all men to reach their full potential. Join the conversation, and become a part of the revolution!

Happy Holidays!
EDC Creations, The Sankofa Literary Society and The Black Authors Network announced the launch of their 2008-2009 Give the Gift of Knowledge Campaign, bringing readers and authors together to help improve literacy. In 2004, during the Christmas holidays, Ella Curry, the founder of EDC Creations, reached out to women's groups and literary organizations to help promote early literacy by giving new books to children from low income homes. Today, the "Give the Gift of Knowledge Campaign," seeks to expand even further by giving the Gift of Knowledge daily!
Based on the “each one teach one model” our goal is to help people introduce reading and new books to their family and friends. Instead of giving expensive gifts that don't shape lives----let's “Give the Gift of Knowledge” and help to strengthen our future generations!
Each year thousands of people — educators, concerned parents, community leaders, authors, poets and publishers — devote their time and resources to presenting the reader with great books! However, too many outstanding books do not get the attention and reader support that they deserve. It is our mission to connect readers with these hidden gems and bring them books that will change their lives.
Each week EDC Creations will sponsor bookclub chats, live readings from authors, podcast presentations, seminars, community relations discussions, and radio shows that deliver the best our writers have to offer. All we ask is that the readers of the world spread the word. Please share this email with 10 people in your network.
EDC Creations has a new eMagazine that we would like you to check out. This holiday season Give the Gift of Knowledge. Send a love one a book that could change their lives! Enter the special magazine by clicking here.
Give the Gift of Knowledge. Want to make a difference in someone else's life this holiday season? Donate an a book to a child, senior or your co-workers for the holidays. EDC Creations has brought the best in today's literature in our new magazine.

If you are an author or bookclub in the Maryland, Washington DC, Virginia, and East Coast area, reach out to us to be included in these weekly presentations.

Every Author Needs a Website--A Control Center
MySpace is a good social network for promoting your books. It is not like having your own control center, a virtual office if you will, authors need websites. If you want to appear industry savvy and to be taken seriously in your efforts, you need a place to represent you and your books in style! EDC Creations is offering free consulations on this subject.
The Black Authors Network Talk Show is looking for authors and poets to read Christmas, Kwanzaa and holiday material on the radio show. If you would like to write a short story or poem to be read on air, please email Ella Curry, the producer at: elladcurry@edc-creations.com. Each night in December 2008, we will host a speaker reading their work live! This is a community celebration, you are all welcome to create something special and give it as a gift to the world. We would also like to host children reading their poems too!

EDC Creations is on The Black Men in America blog!
Patricia Bailey-Jones had led mission trips to nearly 100 nations the year she read an article about Angola-a country in southern Africa that just ended a bloody, 27-year civil war in 2002. "That article gripped me," she says. "In it a father took his [5-year-old] daughter to a hotel and offered her room to room for sex to foreign businessmen. The spirit of God stood up on my inside, and I was compelled to do something."
That compulsion has since led her to Angola three times. On her most recent trip last spring, she distributed laptops and materials donated by U.S. churches and businesses to build better bathrooms at the largest school in Angola's capital, Luanda. "We love you, and these laptops represent people in America who love you," Bailey-Jones told students at Vida Abondante (Abundant Life) School, which is run by area pastors and educates more than 5,000 students in the poverty-stricken suburb of Boa Vista; the name, ironically, means beautiful view.

THE DEFINITION OF A REAL WOMAN
A real woman is true to herself.
She holds her head up high.
She doesn't waddle in pity;
or sit back and cry.
A real woman is a survivor.
She can stand on her own feet.
With God by her side,
she can't be beat.
A real woman has courage;
she has spunk and grace.
Even when she is down,
she has a smile upon her face.
A real woman will make it.
A real woman will excel.
She will keep on striving,
whether she wins or fails.

A REAL WOMAN
I am a woman of substance. I walk with pride.
I have a style of my own. My elegance comes from inside.
I hold my head high; not ashamed of my past.
I am a real woman; a real woman at last.
No one knows the pain I've been through.
No one knows how I've suffered too.
I am a real woman. I can survive this race.
I can keep it together, and keep a smile on my face.
A real woman; strong and wise.
I ignore the jealousy; I ignore the lies.
I'm real and very true from the heart.
I'll let you know this from the start.
Surviving the worst, and taking care of my needs.
I am a real woman; a real woman indeed.
