About the book
A brief interview with the author:
Kelleyina, share a little about your writing journey. What
prompted you to write a book, and how did you go about learning how to do it?
What prompted me to write this book was a little journal I purchased. I saw it and it was just the cutest most delicious looking cover. I looked at it and said, "I know just what I'm going to do with you, I'm going to put poems in you, then put them in a book and get it published." In my mind all of that was happening. After I had gotten enough poems, so I thought, I sent my manuscript out to get my copyright registration. After that I was not sure what to do, so I prayed. That's when God sent a young lady named Robyn Norwood to me. She was starting an authorship class and she was the answer to my prayers. Her class taught me what I needed to do to complete the process of getting my book published.
How did you come up with your lovely, intriguing, and fun
poems?
The way I came up with most of my poems were spirit led. I would arise, after sleeping, with a thought in my head to write something down. Of course I was obedient. Even throughout my day when I got an idea I always stopped to jot down what I was thinking.
What are your favorites? Which gave you the most trouble and
why?
OK, so, I have to be biased here and say, "they are all my favorites." Even when I had about twelve poems and thought I was done, and Robyn challenged me to add a few more, I was always consulting my Heavenly Father for the words.
What do you like to read in your spare time? What are you
reading now?
In my spare time I like to read books on leadership, positive thinking, creating a better future for myself, relationships and prayer verses. Right now I am reading Think Big by Terri Savelle Foy, In The Meantime by Iyanla Vanzant and Kicking Over Sacred Cows by Charles Capps. It depends on whichever room I'm in that determines my read for that moment.
What’s next for you?
My next project is a children's book as well. Except This one will consist of illustrations for the poems. It will be about the yellow school bus.

About the book
The selected poems are brain-teasing, mentally stimulating,
and fun! What makes them unique is that each poem asks a series of questions.
After hearing them, the listener has to figure out what those questions are
revealing about the answer. I provide the answers, but I don't just give them
to the reader, they have to unscramble them.
