Featured Author: Leighanne Boyd
LeighAnne Boyd began writing her first novel "Once Upon a Time In The
Bricks" in the late summer of 2000. With no computer at home, or enough
money to purchase one, she managed to make it to the East Orange Public
Library everyday to add a paragraph or two to her story. LeighAnne was
discouraged by the financial situation she was in, and decided to put her
dreams to the side for a few years.

In the winter of Jan. 2004, Mrs. Boyd began the first day of her "new
beginning" in Chicago, Illinois at the Great Lakes Naval Training Center(NTC).
For four strenuous months, LeighAnne attended bootcamp with the
intentions on becoming an Electrical Technician in the United States Navy.
Upon completion of her four month battle, she attended schooling, and
then ventured of into the fleet.

While back and forth out to sea, LeighAnne Boyd would often daydream of
making it big in the literary industry. This time she had no excuse. The USS
Harry S. Truman was out to sea for a full five months before LeighAnne
decided to get back on a computer and try her luck again. Within three
and a half weeks, her story was complete. LeighAnne Boyd would stay on
the computer for hours at a time until she finished her last sentence.

So today, "Once Upon A Time In the Bricks" is a completed 270 page book,
published by Iesha Brown of Outta Da Blue Publishing. She's sold copies of
her work on Barnes and Noble.com, Amazon.com, Lulu.com, Myspace.com as
well as many other online websites. She has done various interviews with
magazines such as No Labelz Magazine, The Flagship, Urban Essence.com and
is awaiting a review from F.E.D.S. magazine . Mrs. Boyd also conducts
interviews with other writers on her own website, Newjeruproductions.com.
and has a new blog site...www.spectacularl2thab.wordpress.com

"Once Upon a Time In The Bricks" is LeighAnne Boyd's debut novel, and she is
in the midst of completing her sophomore novel, "Ugly Men Cheat Too".
