Pillow Talk w/ 3LWTV "Justus" The Cast

All New episode of "Pillow Talk" now available! Meet the cast of "Justus" the web series based on the explosive novel by J. Omarr.

When J. Omarr sent me his debut novel I was immediately hooked.  Never before had I experienced a story of drugs, violence, (great) sex, relationships set in an African American SGL setting.  I was equally thrilled to learn that they planned to bring the book to life.  I climbed in bed with four cast members, including creator J. Omarr for a fun discussion about the series, sex, relationships, coming out and oh so much more!

What Goes On In The Dominican Republic...STAYS...Well Sort Of... LOL

This is such an incredible time in my life's journey.  From discovering the root cause of painful patterns in my life, to releasing them and forging ahead on the path of healing...so much has occurred in a relatively short period of time.  I am so grateful for it all.   Funny how the Universe works...I received a call from my very good friend Marcos Brinson who invited to visit his place in the Dominican Republic.  He was not aware that I'd already had other travel plans during this time.  He was also unaware that those plans collapsed in what was the catalyst of pain, growth and healing.  I smiled when I got the call and accepted the invitation.   Baby, I excitedly packed the essentials and readied myself for this island escape!  Comfortably seated in First Class, I began the trip in a space of luxurious comfort and never let up!  While I'm ashamed to discuss all of my shenanigans, I can tell you this...the Dominican Republic gave me LIFE!!!!!!! Don't judge me, boo! Just know that it was the right thing at the right time. LOLOLOLOL

I can share a few images from the weekend.  I hope you enjoy.  If you have any questions... I plead the 5th.

Thanks for your love fam!  Keep standing in your light!
