I had the pleasure to meet Author B. A. Pinkney on Sunday, April 26, 2015. I was shopping for things for HFS and as I walked up and down the aisle, I saw a woman who appeared to be deep in thought. A few moments passed before I approached her to ask her this question "Do you support the theater?" She said "I love the theater". She then went on to say "I'm an author." Well needless to say I was excited to be speaking to a fellow artist and didn't waste a second inviting her to come out to see Happiness For Survival.
As we talked, what can I say, we just clicked. She was energetic, warm, sincere and gracious. We understood each others journey. We spoke the same language...that ARTIST language! It was refreshing. Who would've thought that I would meet someone so like minded and so passionate about their art, so organically? Ms. Pinkney called our meeting the way we did, Divine Intervention.
For those who love reading, check out Author B. A. Pinkey's work! Before you do, here's a birds eye view of who Author Pinkney is and what she's all about artistically.
B. A. Pinkney is a retired federal employee and resides in Baltimore, Maryland. She has always had a passion for reading and writing. Pinkney won her first writing contest while an employee of the Veterans Administration, Baltimore, Maryland. The essay was entitled, "What it means to be a Black Woman living in America."
In 2011, her short story was one of four chosen out of more than a thousand entries to be published in the local magazing, The Urbanite. The Other Side of Light is Pinkney's first Christian life fiction novel.
Pinkney has also written a children's book called Naya and the Magic White Hat.
Can't make it to the signing? Order The Other Side of Light before the author's appearance and request a personalized, autographed edition at no extra charge.
B. A. Pinkney visits Greetings & Readings for a book signing on Saturday, June 13, from 1 to 2:30 p.m.
The Other Side of Light:

The fragility of the human mind is revealed when given an abundance of negative input.
One might have concluded that being fortunate enough to have been born into a stable, loving and caring family that a child would have escaped the harsh and downward plunge taken by NA NA. But the emotional wounds inflicted on her young mind stayed with her throughout her young life.
Readers will be brought into the mental conclusions carried on in her mind.
Just as an artist uses a paint brush to complete a picture on a canvas, the negative words stroked into a developing mind one at a time completed the portrait of her life.
Books can be purchased online and in local bookstores at
