  • Interview with Darius Slaughter

    Interview with Darius Slaughter

    By: Where It Begins

    Q. Tell us who Darius the author is?

    A. That may actually be the hardest question I’ve gotten thus far. Let’s see: Mind west born, Third Coast raised, the fat kid who was overlooked and ignored, all district football player, National Merit Scholar, etc., and so on. On the flip side an ‘in-house bastard’- my pops remarried and decided I wasn’t necessary- so by JR year I had an 18-man crew and was a ghost. Now at 47 after multiple indictments, over half a decade in suspended animation and having enjoyed the best and survived the worst life has to offer I would simply say I am a survivor.

    Q. Tell us about your book “Hostile”?

    A. Hostile is a non-biased look at my last 7 years in the game it is neither a glorification nor a knock, but rather an intelligent look-a window if you will-into the complex world that comprises the darker side of society. HOSTILE provides an uncut, raw look at my decisions, my mental motivations, and the consequences and repercussions of said decisions.

    Q. What advice can you give to other authors?

    A. Believe in yourself and your vision and dedicate the time and energy into making your dreams a reality. As your project grows, know that support will come and go but success is solely in your hands.

    Q. Where can we get your book?

    A. The hardcopy and EBook are available on Amazon. Com under Hostile: An Urban Tragedy. For an autographed copy and more visit my website www.hostilebook.com

  • The Secret to Love, Health And Money

    Book: The Secret To Love, Health, And Money

    Author: Rhonda Byrne

    By: Cece Hymes

    This book was about applying the law of attraction to three of life’s most important areas: Relationships, Health, and Money. It’s helping you to manifest and achieve personal happiness, relationships, great health, wealth and success. It shows you to change your mindset, think and manifest the things you want to achieve. If you want money, write yourself those checks. It’s the power of positive thoughts and feelings.

    Rhonda Byrne writes good stories. I also had a chance to read her book called the secret and watch the movie. It was really good. I enjoyed another positive book and movie I think everyone should see or read. If everyone has this mindset the world would be in a better place. I think positivity and having a positive mindset goes a long way. Just picture how thinking one way can change a lot in your life. Speak it in existence. Believe in what you want and picture already having it.

    We all should practice gratitude and visualization. It can lead you to the life of your dreams. Make sure to check out The Secret, The secret to Love, Health, And Money and the Movie tell me your thoughts.

  • The Treston Irby story “Hiatus” Life in the 90s R&B Group Hi-Five

    Book: The Treston Irby story “HIATUS” Life in the 90s R&B Group Hi-Five

    Author: Treston Irby

    By: Cece Hymes

    This book was about Treston Irby’s life. He talks about his life growing up and how he ends up being in the group Hi-Five. His life was a journey he had been through a lot of things growing up into an adult and artist. He talks about how the group broke up and the different stages he went through. The pain, the hustle and the grind. 

    Everyone has a testimony or story. His story is what celebrities and people in the entertainment world go through. I was glad he was real and told his truth on everything. Sometimes it’s good to get your story out. You may help others that get into the entertainment world.

    I can’t wait to read part two of the book and see what’s next. Glad that he continues to still perform as Hi-Five. Also, prayers to the ones that ha” I can’t wait another minute” & “She’s playing hard to get” was some of my favorites.

    The 90’s groups and music are classics now. I love R&B music and I hope they continue to make good music now that they’re older and still performing.
