Please join me for An Author’s Afternoon live in The Locher Room to meet three talented writers who will be here to share their stories with all of you.

Tina Andrews is an author and an actress who appeared in ROOTS and played Valerie Grant on Days of Our Lives. She received a Writers Guild Award for her Sally Hemings: An American Scandal and followed that up with a bio-pic on Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis.

Andrews is often referenced as a Historical Griot, and her book Charlotte Sophia is a groundbreaking, shocking, and thoroughly timely tale about Queen Charlotte, who is thought to be England’s first biracial royal and who is portrayed in the Netflix smash hit Bridgerton.

Long before the popular Netflix series, Tina Andrews—a WGA and NAACP Image Award-winning writer, producer, and director—developed an interest in Queen Charlotte. After years of research and writing, she published Charlotte Sophia in 2013, and the book has just been released as an audiobook by Recorded Books.

The film and television rights to the book, which covers everything from Queen Charlotte’s efforts to conceal her African heritage to her forbidden love for Johann Christian Bach, were recently acquired by HBO Max, with Andrews writing the pilot.

Rodger Howard spent over 30 years covering television news in the city of Los Angeles as a photojournalist. He believes that while his profession provides a videographer the opportunity to share stories and experiences with the public, it also carries a tremendous responsibility. Photographers have the obligation to tell the whole story, to provide some perspective and critical information along with visuals.

Rodger’s book, fOCUS, the (almost 100%) True Tale of an Intrepid News Photographer, is like nothing you’ve read before. This exciting novel is based on true-life stories of an experienced news videographer named Ron Sharp. Ron’s career has highs, lows, grinding boredom and heart-racing excitement, sometimes all in the same day. Beauty, Heroism, Tragedy, and Evil - All part of the job. His novel was released in July 2021.

Author R. A. Revis was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada and has been a fan of fantasy novels for almost as long as he has been able to read. His first novel, The Dark Times Saga: The Black Forest, is fueled by his fascination of the paranormal and the supernatural, including his love of ancient history and religions. The Dark Times Saga: The Black Forest by R A Revis, was released in July 2021.

Dark Times Saga: The Black Forest is a tale of good versus evil, light versus dark, and takes place on a fictional new continent far west of medieval England. It’s a story that intertwines myths with reality during an apocalyptic time for the world. The story takes place during a gothic Arthurian age where monsters of myth and legend were all too real and the dawn of science was fast approaching. This novel will appeal to people who enjoyed “Game of Thrones”, “The Witcher”, “Lord of the Rings”, and other fantasy adventure novels with a dark foreboding tale, that include rich believable characters and a setting within a historical backdrop of a grim world filled with horrors that lurk in the night.
