What our Clients say
1. “Metaphorically Speaking has many wonderful insights on life and topics ranging from writing, to faith, to matters of the heart. I have had some of the same thoughts as Sherisse. I read the book in one night and I loved it. Part 3 labelled Woman was my favorite, especially number 18 titled For My Mother. It clearly showed the strength of her mom’s character and her appreciation for having someone so special in her life to love, adore and strive to be like. Overall, the book can be complicated in some areas but relatable to the lives of many of us. Great work!”
“After reading Metaphorically Speaking all I can say is wow! Even though it was Spoken Word so much was said and there was so much mystery… I can’t wait for part 2… Awesome read!”

Her vulnerability gives the reader a glimpse as to what it is to live a day in the life of Sherisse; A young Strong Black woman, facing a rare battle, with a rare condition.
