Too Old to Dance But Young Enough to Rock 'n' Roll by L. Gene Brown and K. Ceres Wright is an exciting postapocalyptic SF military story from the point of view of two soldiers, one an African American man, the other an Ethiopian Israeli woman, each commanding their troops to search out and obtain a mysterious element promising to end the war —Protocol 45. In their quest, they must either fight, avoid, or negotiate with armies from Korea, China, and Russia, as well as local gang members, to obtain an elusive peace. But what will this peace cost? L. Gene Brown and K. Ceres Wright have crafted a compelling futuristic tale that shows the grim reality of war—that could happen in today’s climate—where even those who survive pay a heavy price. - Hamil Harris, award-winning journalist (WABJ) and college professor (University of Maryland) Purchase Too Old but Young Enough to Rock 'n' Roll directly from MVmedia or anywhere books are sold.

Five Stars October 9, 2024 I never thought I would be reading a Hallmark special made novel in October. I’m not a pumpkin spice type of guy but I found that I really enjoyed it. It is a contemporary family story set around the sea islands during Christmas. I found the family dynamic real and the romance touching. The food descriptions were a bonus and for me(as a foodie) the MVP in the story. I’m ready for the sequel. - David Hankerson, Goodreads review Preorder A Palmetto Christmas today from MVmedia and anywhere books are sold. Release date: November 29, 2024. ISBN no.: 979-8990512009

Playing the odds- written by aalbc member Milton J Davis
Milton replied to richardmurray's topic in Black Literature
@Troy We're in the process of completing the entire script as well as working on episode Two. Animation is expensive so we'll work in one to two minute increments until the entire series is complete. Recent advances in animation technology might allow us to move faster.
