Thank you, Abiola! Laughing at myself for seeing the big, bold headline and not the REPEATED reference to the fact that this was the name of a film ... DUH!!!! Funny thing about it is ...

I am in the middle of a shoot, but a taking a moment to respond because your comment troubled me so….

“I’m Through With White Girls” is the name of a film directed by Jennifer Sharp that shows that in the case of the film’s hero race was not the problem, but his personality was. Much like in my novel Dare, the character must be introspective to grow.

The entire post was in salute to the filmmaker and her tenacity. Please read it here: http://thegoddessfactory.blogspot.com/2007/11/im-through-with-white-girls.html

For me, the joke of using the film’s title as my post title was that of course I would never feel/say anything like that.

Thanks for reaching out, and expressing yourself. Perhaps many others were confused and didn’t have the guts to leave a comment. So thank you for that my new friend!!!

Yay– glad we cleared that up.

Sending you love, light, cookies and joy…
