Carl Weber Gives
"Best Selling" Author a New Meaning
by Leah Mullen
A year ago this summer Hollywood witnessed the emergence of the "Original Kings of Comedy. "In the publishing world around the same time Carl Weber emerged with his first book, "Lookin for Luv," which had readers dubbing him the original king of drama, drama and more drama.
"Lookin for Luv," the first title released by Dafina Books, a new imprint of Kensington is what Weber believes many book buyers are looking for. And he should know, as we sat down to chat in the African American Bookstore, Weber simultaneously answered interview questions while talking to his regular customers.
Even while he's got what many writers dream of including a contract with a major publisher and a following of readers who are eagerly looking for his next book to hit the shelves, anyone can see just by spending time in his store that Weber truly loves selling books.
Weber got his start as a book retailer over seven years ago while he was a business teacher on Riker's Island. At the time his background was mainly in accounting and finance. One assignment he gave to his students was to create a business model for a bookstore. After giving the plan a whirl, he found it actually worked and the African American Bookstore was born first as a mail order business. The Queens store where we met that day in June has been around for about four years.
So in looking at the breadth of Weber's experience, one can definitely see a connection between his background in finance and his current business but when and how did the creative side come into play? Weber, who reads on average three books a week, says he decided to try his hand at writing after many of his customers told him that there weren't many books out there that they liked to read. And what kinds of books are those? Books filled with page after page of pure, unadulterated drama.
And "Lookin for Luv" appears to be just that. It's the story of three men who resort to finding the women of their dreams by calling a 1-900 number. The critics are calling Weber's first novel "obnoxiously funny." One reader described "Lookin for Luv" as a "wonderful break from the daily struggles," mirroring what Weber says the reading audience is looking for, a chance to deal with other people's problems.

Weber, who said English class wasn't his strength when he was in school, learned how to write by studying the work of other authors. To create dialogue Weber said he writes conversations the way he hears people speak. And one element that he feels is essential in telling his stories is to have what he calls a good villain or "someone you can hate."
And the drama continues. In addition to running the African American Bookstore, Weber plans to write a book a year. Weber's next book "Married Men" is scheduled to be released in September. The book's cover promises the audience "a rowdy romp through sleazy hotels, divorce court, jail...strippers, trippers, psycho ex-football players and stuff too freaky to mention." "
But what about other literary critics who feel that Weber's work is Jerry Springerish?
"Yeah it is," Weber said unapologetically. "We have to realize that not everything is going to be Toni or Cornell West."
The best selling author is quoted widely regarding his knowledge of the publishing industry which he first honed as a book retailer. In a recent article appearing in the New York Times Weber touted the book "Addicted by Zane" as the "hottest paperback in the country." Weber was also named as the Blackboard Bookseller of the year in 2000 and he says even as he continues to write, he'll also continue to sell books. "I can't forget where I came from," he said. "I'll never give up the store."

New York Times bestselling author Carl Weber takes readers back to church,
where preaching isn't always enough, nothing goes better with the Word than
a song--and it's time for some hard-earned lessons in love, brotherhood, and
betrayal.
Bishop T.K. Wilson has done all he can to make First Jamaica Ministries a
success. But with his last choir director getting caught in a scandal,
attendance and cash flow are down. To fill the pews and collection plates,
the Bishop is counting on a new choir director, the charismatic Anthony
Mackie, to revive the church.
Anthony Mackie has been waiting his entire life for the opportunity to prove
he has what it takes to be a big-time choir director like Kirk Franklin. But
while Anthony is more than up to the challenge, his ways around women, both
past and present, could cost him more than his job.
Savannah Dickens is just one of the women who's caught Anthony's attention.
The choir needs a soloist, and Savannah, a beautiful singer who once topped
the charts, also needs the church. She has a voice that could break any
man's heart, but now she just wants to be left alone to reclaim her faith.
First Lady Monique Wilson is far from being the typical first lady. She does
and says what she wants, and doesn't subscribe to church politics. Despite
her shortcomings and a past rumored to include a long list of men, she's
willing to do just about anything to protect the Bishop.
The members of First Jamaica Ministries are also keeping the Bishop busy
with choir in-fighting, romantic jealousies, and personal vendettas. You'd
think the Bishop was being tested enough, but a final piece of the puzzle
has yet to be revealed: Someone has been robbing the church blind. Someone
whose connection to the Bishop is far too close for comfort. . . .

There is always a man around the corner. And church trustee James Black should know'he's usually that very man, carrying on affairs with married women and sleeping with one conquest after another. He has charm and good looks, and he knows how to use them. But when the tables turn and he suddenly finds himself in love with the woman of his dreams, he's not the only one who's surprised. And his newfound love quickly generates a ripple effect of shocking proportions....
The other women in James's church have a thing or two to say about James's new love. His daughter Jamie, only six months younger and a former friend his new flame, has every intention of dismantling his new relationship.

about friendship and love, sex and betrayal, and how getting some on the
side is never as simple as it seems...
Meet Tammy, Egypt, Isis, Nikki, Coco, and Tiny--the bodacious women of
the Big Girls Book Club. There's only one rule to being a member. You
must be at least a size 14...
BGBC president Tammy loves everything about her life--her two kids, her
fierce friends, her BMW. She especially loves taking care of business
for her husband, Tim, for whom she'd do anything. This year, she intends
to top all his past birthdays by having a threesome with her best
friend, Egypt. Now, if only Egypt will agree to grant them this very
special favor...
Isis's boyfriend, Tony, romances her every chance he gets--and he knows

for him. That is until a man from her past steps back into her
life--with only one goal in mind: win back the woman he's never been
able to forget.
But not every BGBC member is lucky with men. Once upon a time, single
mom Nikki would have made love to her man in the middle of Times Square
for the entire country to see. Now that he's her ex, it takes everything
she has not to kill him (or let her roommate, Tiny, do it for her),
especially since he has a way of disappointing their son every chance he
gets--and then making her look like the bad guy.
And then there's hot-to-trot Coco Brown, who has a habit of messing
around with married men. It doesn't bother her, as long as they don't
try to deny it. But now that she's hooked up with a man who makes his
living being every woman's fantasy, all she cares about is making sure
he doesn't stray.
As insatiable about books as they are about love--or lust--these friends
are about to discover how tough it is to keep it real when they all have

and dishonest.
Kevin's got the looks. Antoine's got heart and soul. Tyrone's got the skills.
And Maurice has got layer moves. They've got it all, except for the one thing
that matters most'the love of a good woman. What they find when they call 1-900
Black Luv is a riotous trip through religious freaks, hootchie mamas, chicken
heads, gold diggers, and some serious Brides of Funkenstein. One thing's for
certain when you play the game of love, you've got to be ready for anything.
As funny as it gets, Lookin for Luv tells it like it is about modern romance,
where every call is a chance to lose your mind'or find your soul mate.
