What Readers Are Saying

* "I found your memoir Dear Starving Artist, Get Something to Eat to be a very honest, engaging, and motivational story that will certainly serve as an inspirational guide to a variety of artists. As a creative person, I identified with so many aspects of your struggle to achieve your dream and found myself reflecting on the journey I have traveled in my own literary career. Your first-person narration, style, and tone of "speaking to the reader" ring true. The infusion of comedic phrasing and the contemporary dialogue showcase the setting, time, and circumstances of each phase of your journey. The inclusion of hard facts and true-life examples of the business side of the movie industry are spot on, delivering the kind of research and practical information that an aspiring actor, or anyone on a creative journey, needs." Anita Bunkley, NAACP IMAGE AWARD nominee, member of the TEXAS INSTITUTE OF LETTERS, and voted one of the 50 favorite African American authors of the twentieth century by the on-line African American Literature Book Club.

* "It was a consuming story that I saw a lot of myself in-the drive and hunger for the arts, the desire to continue taking classes and surrounding myself with fellow artists, the interest in diversifying my experiences and openness to different forms of work, my actual love of rejection as one of my greatest teachers, and then again, my urge to quit when yet another literary agent or publisher declines my work-and I was inspired to hear of another artist who looked at the industry so much like I did... and for lack of better terms, "made it." McKenzie Lynn Tozan, Editor or Lit Shark Magazine

* This book is such a testament of what can happen when you combine faith plus works! The author crafts a beautiful story that reminds its readers to live life with purpose and passion. There are countless nuggets of wisdom and one of its greatest lessons is to appreciate the journey while pursuing your goals. Whether you aspire to become an actor or not, this heartfelt memoir is a must read ! Sonya Williams
