My grandmother was dope.
Streetwise, stylish and numbers savvy, she was also a born-again ex-con who dropkicked drug addiction and taught me how to be a strong Black woman by any means necessary.
I loved her beyond life and that’s why I created Merry Paine, a fictionalized version of her, in my novel “Address: House of Corrections.”
Get to know Merry in “honey bee,” the first of the three novellas I’m publishing to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of AHC: http://bit.ly/AHChoneybee
