My Trini Brooklyn, NY homegirl I met in college. Someone I have always been, and will always be able to talk to. It’s amazing I’ve known her for 18 years. Wow.

The manuscript Blue Lines is the fictional coming of age narrative of a young California woman Key Yemaya Walker, and her 2 year growing journey through school, love, and life period piece, written by Kenneth Suffern, Jr., taking place at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill between the years of 1997 – 1998. Loosely based on true events, and experiences during that time, told through the eyes and voice of the main female protagonist, a freshman first attending the school.

Hit your house’n projects
