Hello, Fellow Writers and Readers

 

I have been away too long. I have missed you.

 

I will return with the continuing saga of my promotion for The Culinary Art Portfolio of Josephine E. Jones.  But right now, I want you to see my first published work under my pen name:

 

Wendy Ebo Jones.

 

Since there are at least 300 people named Wendy Jones in North America and one other writer who shares my name

 

--after attending an Independent Book Publishers Association webinar on the subject of making sure your work stands out,

(they used the term "branding," which brings up the smell of the burning flesh of enslaved people, so I don't use it)--

 

I decided to differentiate myself.

 

Why Ebo? It's a family name.

 

Here is a link to the essay, On the Bus (approx. 500 words):

I laughed out loud when you compared Stanley to a "bon bon!" I always knew I had a crush on some boy or man when I thought of them as food. I remember telling my former crush, now a very good friend, that I would "Sop him up with a biscuit." LOL

Sounds like you are from my old neighborhood @Wendy Jones I was accepted into Dalton. My daughters went to Nightingale.
