UNDER THE INFLUENCE

Inspiration is a funny thing.  When I was fourteen this man inspired me in so many ways...
Always my first love...

When his record company tried to screw him he changed his name (to an unpronounceable symbol) and refused to perform until they made things right.  When they finally released him he went independent and never looked back.  I LOVE Prince Rodgers Nelson.

I remember seeing the movie "Ghandi" when I was in high school.  His quote "an eye for an eye will leave a blind world" helps me stay centered to this very day.

Another fab quote from the master of peace...


I have been blessed to acquire a few new clients.  One in particular has made me re-evaluate everything.  He told me "I see great things in you" and I believed him when he said it.  Thank you to Raymond Bennett, the founder of Talk2MeSportsRadio.com.  Check out the website when you get a chance and his show every Tuesday @ 8pm on blogtalkradio.com/talk2mesportsradio.

Realizing I missed someone on the previous "Emotional Glam Squad" list (former blog post), I have to give a special shout-out to my bestie.  She entrusted me to be God-Mother to her four children and is a true inspiration to me in so many ways.  I love you Ashlie Derk-Schauble.

My Bestie Ashlie...thank you for everything!




So this is my tale of inspirational figures in my life and how it relates to Creatively Yours (ARC).  Incredible things are happening with this business and my life in general and I am so blessed.  Inspiration is the catalyst and the work is done because the spark has been lit.  I don't want to let my clients down.  I don't want to squander the inspiration and opportunities that were born of it.  It's a continuous circle of greatness, all I have to do is be open to the full process.

I'm happily under the influence of very positive and powerful people, ideas and goals. 

Never give up.  It's only a matter of time before your dreams manifest into the concrete things that you desire.  The power of attraction is an amazing thing.  Let it work for you as it is working for me!



Do you FEEL that?

A quick note...over my birthday weekend (10/11 through 10/13) 347 copies of my book Themes and Dreams were downloaded for FREE on #Amazon.  I only ask that you would please leave a review on Amazon.  Good, bad or indifferent I wish to improve with each project and your honest feedback is appreciated.

My sisters and I, Nichelle (left) and Elaine (right), toasting it up for the birthday!


Until next time I wish you inspiration, manifestation and peace...

Star Qualities for ARC

So ARC has decided that she is ready to be a star...

not just another pretty face


Mind you, when I was 4 years old and singing "Ben" by Michael Jackson at the top of my lungs my momma said I would be a star...then she turned around and wanted me to be a lawyer...but I digress..

Star Qualities

~ A star promotes herself and her work.  She does the talk show circuit to talk about her new movie, project, cd or single.

This is who I will interview with someday...I love him.


~ Here's my new project.  I love it and I'm so proud of it...

MINE!  Cover illustration(s) by Maia Truesdale-Scott.  #LOVE
