“I am very thankful to the host of friends and family members who have supported my journey as an author and book publisher. Special recognition is due to my parents, James and Tinnie Dawkins, my two sisters, Drs. Rowena and Artina Dawkins, and my husband, “Moe,” who have given unending support and encouragement along the way. And lastly, I want to recognize my wonderful son, Cameron, who has been an inspiration since day one.”
