Poetic Outlets

Well...

It's finally that time. It's time for me to release another book. I'm really excited about this project because many people have inquired about me releasing a book of poetry. I have received a lot of positive comments from individuals residing in California, Washington D.C., Texas, North Carolina, Georgia, and right here in Ohio. When my avid readers and listerns tell me something needs to be done and it has presented itself time and time again, I listen. I am listening to your words and preparing to release my first book of poetry called "Poetic Outlets." The book will include poems that I had written a few years ago and others that were written a few months ago. You will all witness the transition in my writing, as I grow as a writer. It was interesting viewing my previous works because I had to decide between those poems that were absolutely horrible and those that still spoke sweet truths to my soul. I truly hope that my writing can speak to you in the same manner that it spoke to me when I wrote it. Feel free to stay up-to-date by visiting my page at MelicaNiccole.

What's Going On?

Hello family and friends,

I would like to thank Tony Kay, radio personality at ArtistFirst.com, for providing a delightful interview in the beginning of the month. I have received a lot of positive comments about the interview and my book Dead Wrong. The interview can be accessed by clicking the link below http://66.49.193.35/Authors-First_2010-12-08_Melica_Niccole.mp3

As an author, I have to be steadfast in my efforts to reach individuals that would benefit from my writing. My creations are lesson-oriented with great influence to assist people with making decisions. As a child, I loved watching Aesop's Fables. My favorite story was the one about the tortoise and the hare. The hare was faster than the tortoise, so it was undeniable that the hare would beat the tortoise. The hare underestimated the tortoise's steadfastness and was consumed with his own thoughts of beating the tortoise. While the hare took it easy because he just knew he would win, the tortoise continued his journey toward the finish line and demonstrated the very quote from Aesop's Fables that "slow and steady wins the race." Just remember, if you ever feel like a tortoise and feel underappreciated. Don't give up because you too can beat a hare.
