Welcome back!
Veronica’s 20 year IT career came to an end when her inner writer and entrepreneur inexplicably besieged her to give it all up. In her dreams, she is an international best-seller, penning her masterpieces from the shores of Africa. But in the meantime, she now spends her days writing, managing her websites and polishing up her rusty programming skills. In 2007, she traced her African ancestry to Sierra Leone and launched www.myafricandiaspora.com – a news and information website aimed at reconnecting the African diaspora. Born in Brooklyn, NY, she now calls Las Vegas, NV home. Visit Veronica at www.veronicawrites.com.
After Veronica and her partner traced their African ancestry and began researching West African culture, they ran across the Ghanian Adinkra symbols, which was the first product launched under their Kindred Gear line: www.zazzle.com/kindredgear – Afrocentric tshirts
Veronica’s short story “My Soul to free” was inspired by a trip to the Bunce Island slave castle in Sierra Leone. It was published by Expanded Horizons: http://expandedhorizons.net/magazine/?page_id=820
