Princess Fumi Hancock has been been announced as the winner already.
Several weeks ago, I reached out to my online family as my movie, Of Sentimental Value and myself were
nominated for the Nollywood & Africans Films Critics Association
(NAFCA) ~African Oscar Peoples' Choice Award in the following
categories:
Several
few days ago, I was announced as the winner! Such an exciting time and
I get to share it with you all! Thanks to all who kept the faith with
me and kept voting. I couldn't have done it without you all. The journey
to writing bestselling books and making award winning movies have not
been easy. There were times I felt like throwing in the towel.,
particularly when you get rejection letters from an onslaught of agents,
producers you name it ~ Been there done that and now wrote two
bestselling books about it.
This
is 30 YEAR dream coming to pass this year 2014! For those who are
about to give up on their dreams, DO NOT! If you continue to persevere,
it will come to pass. But you must do your own part! A parked car will
always remain parked until you start steering it.
