Literary Works of Dena Tyson

I just want to say that Saturday night was kinda special. My friend Camille and her sweetie pie Fred invited me and Tony bologna to come out and spend some time among friends and I just want to say thank you! Didn’t we have a great time y’all…? We had some down home good eating… I’m talkin ’bout finger lickin good ribs just fallin off da-bone! Our thanks to the cooks, the food was fantastic! We laughed and some of us had to duke-it-out at the card table ‘cuz you know you don’t mess around in a good game of bid-wiz! (…hahahah). I can’t tell you when the last time I was able to kick back and just be. Unfortunately for me I’ve never had much going on in the way of family of my own, but God has a way of extending our family and our hearts among friends. I wrap my arms around each and every one of you, I love you and I thank God for bringing you into my life and Tony’s. I thank you for all of your support and I hope you enjoy your books as well as your dolls from my Kuckabug Collection. I cannot tell you how much this gathering of love meant to me, and I feel truly blessed.

Big computer hug-g-g-gs & kisses y’all! Enjoy the pics you all look absolutely fabulous!

Holla!

What an incredible experience it was at my book signing at the Chicago Carifete, and what a success! I met with so many wonderful people and we all had a great time! My Tony bologna and I really enjoyed all of the festivities and the parade was fantastic! I was still shakin it up like those beautiful women wearing their feathered crowns. They reminded me of a scene from the movie Coming To America when they did that African dance! Oh I can’t tell you what an experience it was for us. I really tried to take as many pics as I could but please keep in mind I was so very busy and it was hard to get away. I want to thank Ms Sherilee for inviting me to be there as the featured author, dear-heart I wrap my arms around you and am ever so grateful for your kindness!

For those of you that couldn’t make it out hopefully I will get a chance to see you at my next signing coming up in October.

In September date TBD, I have been invited to speak on WVON talk radio with Ms Dorothy Tillman. I have also been invited to speak with some of our young adults of the future in Evergreen Park and another book signing in October at Azizi Books in Matteson, Illinois. Can you tell I’m a busy Author?

Thanks again to everyone who came out to show their support. I have attached some of the pics below.

A Good Time was had by all at the Chicago Black Womens Expo!

I just want to say thank you. Thank you to all of my family and friends that came out to support me and Tony bologna in my book signing at The Chicago Black Womens Expo!

I especially want to shout out to all of my fans, my beautiful black sistah’s and brotha’s that came out in “Full Support”, I thank you and I thank God for all of you as well. I am so humbled, and thank the heavens above for allowing me just to be… What a blessing, and such a great honor to have been in your presence. I met with sooooo many wonderful people. People that looked like me and stood proud. I wrap my arms around each and every one of you, and I- love- you! I thank you so much for sharing your stories, your testimonies, both young and old folks like myself! Honey we laughed and just had a good time didn’t we…? Fellas, I thank you for coming out showing your support too, see that’s what I’m talkin ‘bout! Don’t let me forget about my white sistah’s and brotha’s either. Y’all did your thing and came on out and showed your support as well and I thank you!
Ok, now let me continue before I get myself all worked up. ( Y’all know I’m a cry baby! )

Where do I begin…

First off, a big shout out to my man Riley at McCormick Place! Me and Tony bologna thank you for helping us along our way, and for all of your support. (Enjoy your books and keep loving that wonderful wife of yours, we wish you our best!)
