Reality Blogging (part 1 of changing the game)
Here at The Rich House, I like to keep it fresh, so we are going to change the game up a bit. When I did my Fade to Black post everyone thought (probably because I wrote it in that slant) that I was quitting blogging. On the contrary. I just decided that I wanted to change the focus of my blogging. You will still get the thought provoking and entertaining pieces, but you'll also get some live unscripted footage. So hang around for the ride and let's see what new and exciting ground we can cover.
St. Louis Book Signing
Today we are going to play it safe and just share some photos and video footage from a book signing that I was invited to attend as a signing author. It was a great venue, held at a fairly new black owned bookstore, Not Just A Bookstore. I met some fantastic authors and sold some books from the Love and Redemption project while helping the store owners make a little money. That was cool.

Author Carletta D. Washington, M.Ed.
As soon as that event was over I stopped by my local library to show some love to National Best Selling Author Eric Jerome Dickey, who has a new book out entitled PLEASURE. Come to find out, he had heard of the Blogger's Delight Book and was happy to extend us a photo opportunity. Thanks for the love Eric.

Cool! I can see 'em all now & they look GREAT!
Go for the gold, big man! Hey, I had trouble seeing some of the pics, too.
hey man, great pics
Ha, I was one of those people who had thought you were done blogging. Glad you're still at it.
I like the idea of changing the game up with doing videos and such. It adds a more personal touch.
Eric Jerome Dickey... Another book already??? He doesn't play. I was surprised at all of the people who showed up for his signing in Charleston last year. Funny that half that less than that showed up for Zane and Omar Tyree. Guess everybody loves Dickey, including me=)
From my bed! You are Fab! Love it!
I thought I was watching a documentary. It was just that real life. You definitely have given a more personal feel to blogging. That is great, great, great.
It's sad that I've never read Eric Jerome Dickey. Everyone tells me that I am missing out. I do plan on getting around to reading his books though. Londa B. sounds like she has written an interesting read as well.
Love, love, love the pics! Eric Jerome Dickey is the TRUTH! He is the love of my life, and doesn't even know it. Those dreads are oh so sexy too!!
Love the post!
To all readers who have yet to read "Blogger's Delight" - amazing stories - what are you waiting for???
I heard that this said book tour was NOT making a stop in NYC... just straight rude!
nice pics though!
cheaters is still my all-time fav eric jerome dickey book... and its not because the cover is purple either...lol
The photos are cool. I really wish that I was able to attend the one you had here in DC. Maybe next time. By the way, thanks for stopping through and thanks for the comment. Peace~
@EB, the tour is coming your way, we just don't have a date. Everyone is busy writing and attending to existing dates, but you know it won't be a party until Eb the Celeb is in the house.
@Stephen Bess -- brother, I wish you could have made it as well. You never know, we might just get the opportunity to roll back through your beautiful city.
ok cool
so you all do poems, stories and all types of creative expressions
maybe one day i can put something to the table
You gone have me posting pictures I took with E. Lynn back in 1996! Great to see some familiar faces in the literary world! EJD, eh. Down-to-earth, picture-taking brother as the writing he evokes!
Congrats on your accomplishment.
That look like fun. I loved the video. Let me know when your book tour comes to GA so I can give you a shoutout. :)
looky here! someone is a celeb and stuff! man, i should have gotten your autograph back when you were still anonymous.
Good job!! Keep up the good work. :)
Hey Brother Rich! Great job with the video history and the run down of events; however, I find I must ask a favor of you...in the future when events like these are taking place in The Lou of which you are aware, please give a sistah a holla as I would have loved to attend both these events and somehow I fell short of my game and didn't even know they were jumping off in my fair city ;)
