I'm Geri, Author, Storyteller & Creator of the B.A.R.E. Series

I write emotionally raw stories about love, heartbreak, and healing. My debut book, Muse: Brown Skin – A Dangerous Kind of Love, explores the complicated space between passion and self-worth. Through my work and the B.A.R.E. series, I share stories many women feel but rarely say out loud—reminding readers that even painful love can lead to transformation.

When people say they don’t read nonfiction, I just smile because Muse isn’t a boring textbook read. It’s raw, emotional, cinematic, and real. It reads like a story, feels like a movie, and hits like lived experience. This isn’t just nonfiction — it’s healing, reflection, and truth in book form. You don’t hate nonfiction, you just haven’t read Muse yet. Hashtags: #MuseBook #NonfictionThatFeelsLikeFiction #IndieAuthorLife #BookTokAuthors #HealingThroughBooks

Sometimes I have to stop and really process what’s happening. What started as my story, my healing, and my truth turned into something readers are connecting with all over.

As an indie author, every order means someone believed in my words enough to spend their time with them. That is something I will never take for granted.

I’m beyond thankful for everyone who has supported Muse: Brown Skin – A Dangerous Kind of Love. Every share, every review, every purchase helped get us here.

And we’re just getting started. 🖤

My book came out on September 10 and since then I’ve been grinding nonstop to make sure Muse is available for EVERY type of reader. Paperback. Hardcover. Ebook. Audiobook. Because I know everyone consumes books differently and I never wanted accessibility to be the reason someone couldn’t experience my story. This indie author journey is not easy, but I’ve been consistent, strategic, and relentless. I’m not stopping. Not now. Not ever. #IndieAuthorGrind #MuseBook #SelfPublishedAuthor #BookTokAuthor #AuthorJourney

Life, healing, motherhood, heartbreak, and writing my truth changed me. The woman who started Muse is not the same woman promoting it today. I grew, I healed, and I chose myself in ways I never did before. So no, sweetie… I’m softer in spirit but stronger in boundaries.

He really thought he was the best I could get. Not realizing healing upgrades your standards, your mindset, and the love you accept. I didn’t glow up out of spite — I grew up out of self-respect. And when he finally noticed I did way better, I was already at peace and long gone emotionally. Hashtags: #LevelUpEnergy #DidBetterNotBitter #HealingGlowUp #KnowYourWorth #MuseMindset

People always ask me if I enjoy being a nonfiction author and writing about things I’ve actually experienced in my lifetime. The truth is, it’s rewarding but also vulnerable. You’re not hiding behind fiction — you’re telling real stories, real emotions, and real growth. Every chapter I write comes from lived experiences, healing, lessons, and moments that shaped who I am today. It’s not just storytelling for me, it’s reflection, honesty, and legacy. And if my experiences help even one person feel seen, then it’s all worth it. #NonfictionAuthor #AuthorJourney #IndieAuthorLife #StorytellingMatters #WomenWhoWrite

Some men get so used to women overextending, explaining, forgiving, and tolerating everything that real boundaries feel like rejection. It’s not that she changed overnight — she just stopped abandoning herself. And suddenly, the expectations they had access to are no longer available.

There were so many moments where Muse blocked Brown Skin because protecting her peace felt easier than facing the emotions. But when a connection is deep, silence doesn’t always mean closure. It just means you’re trying to heal while still feeling everything. Writing those moments in Muse was very real because sometimes blocking someone isn’t about hate… it’s about survival, boundaries, and emotional exhaustion. #M#MuseBookB#BookTokAuthorsE#EmotionalHealingT#ToxicLoveStoriesAuthorStorytime

I chose self-publishing because I knew nobody would put the same passion, urgency, and energy into my book the way I do. This is my story, my voice, my vision, and my responsibility.

They say I promote my book too much like I didn’t pour my heart, money, time, and energy into it. As an indie author, marketing IS part of the job. No big publisher. No big budget.

I’m not afraid to start over, fail, or face setbacks. That’s part of the journey, especially as an indie author building something from the ground up. Delays, edits, relaunches, marketing fatigue, and still I keep going. I’ll restart as many times as I need to if it gets me closer to where I’m meant to be. Quitting was never an option for me.

Attending the Cozy Girl Book Club Black Book Block Party was such a beautiful experience 🖤 Mobile Black Bookstore showed up with a restock of my books and they sold out in LESS than an hour. I’m still in shock. Next time I’m bringing WAY more copies because the love from readers was unreal. Indie author moments like this make every late night, every TikTok, and every ounce of promotion worth it. The support was real and I felt it in that room. #BlackBookTok #IndieAuthorLife #MuseBook #DMVAuthors #BookEventVibes

People expect you to be quiet about your book. To downplay it. To act humble until it “blows up.” But I didn’t write, edit, fund, and promote my story just to whisper about it. I’m going to talk about my book at 10 sales, 100 sales, and 10,000 sales. Because the vision doesn’t get quieter just because the journey is still building.

One thing about the indie author community… we really do root for each other. We celebrate your first book, share your posts, and support your journey because we know how hard it is. But publishing is just the beginning. Marketing consistently, showing up, and talking about your book long after release is where most people get discouraged. The truth is, we’re still cheering for you — but you have to keep going. Consistency is what separates the authors who grow from the ones who disappear. #IndieAuthorLife #IndieAuthorCommunity #AuthorReality #SelfPublishedAuthor

Not just read it… feel it. I always tell new readers that Muse is a full experience. Step 1: Play the playlist. Step 2: Get in your feelings. Step 3: Read slowly like you’re listening to a love story unfold. This book isn’t meant to be rushed. It’s meant to be heard, felt, and lived through the music, the words, and the emotions. If you read Muse in silence, you’re missing half the experience. #tiktoklive #livehighlights #M#MuseBookI#IndieAuthorLifeReadingExperience

Part 3 of my series with Meredith the voice of Muse. This time, I asked her directly: “What did you think about Muse?” Not just as a reader, but as the narrator who had to feel every emotion, every scene, and every layer of Muse’s story. Hearing her thoughts after stepping fully into the character’s voice was honestly powerful. Because it’s one thing to read Muse… and another to live inside her voice. 🎙️✨ Hashtags: #MuseAudiobook #VoiceOfMuse #LindseyMeredith #IndieAuthorLife #BlackRomanceBooks

Thank you so much to Tiara Lashae 📚💙 for this beautiful review of the Muse audiobook. You truly described exactly what I hoped listeners would feel when they experienced this story in audio form. Waking up and seeing this had me emotional because as an indie author, hearing that the narration brought the emotions to life means everything to me. I am forever grateful to everyone who has listened, supported, and poured love into the audiobook so far. And if you haven’t listened yet, you can get the Muse audiobook today on Audible and Amazon. 🎧🖤 #MuseAudiobook #BookTokReviews #IndieAuthorLife #AudiobookTok #AuthorGratitude

Why promoting a book on TikTok start feeling like I’m selling barbecue plates? “Fresh off the grill! Hot and ready! Limited copies!” Maybe if my book came with a side of mac and cheese and a sweet tea, the algorithm would push it harder. Indie author life really be like: write the book, market the book, become the walking commercial for the book. I’m crying and laughing at the same time but we still outside promoting.

To all my readers with glasses, tired eyes, or who just hate tiny print… I thought about y’all when I formatted Muse. I did NOT want my girls squinting, zooming, or getting headaches trying to enjoy the story. Big, readable print = a smoother, more emotional reading experience. Because you’re supposed to feel the book, not fight the font. #tiktoklive #livehighlights #M#MuseBookB#BookTokAuthorsIndieAuthor

Attending the @cozygirlbookclub Black Book Block Party was such a beautiful experience 🖤📚

@apt105books came through with a restock of my books and they SOLD OUT in less than an hour. I’m honestly still in shock.

Next time, I am definitely bringing way more copies because the love from readers was unreal. Moments like this remind me why I keep grinding as an indie author. Every late night, every post, every live, and every ounce of promotion is worth it when you feel that kind of real support in the room.

Truly grateful for every reader who showed up, supported, and poured love into Muse.

From the moment I walked in, the energy was beautiful. The readers, the conversations, and especially the vendors were all amazing. Being surrounded by talented authors, creatives, and Black-owned businesses was honestly inspiring.

As an indie author, moments like this remind me why showing up in real life matters just as much as showing up online. Every table was intentional, every vendor was supportive, and the community showed genuine love.

Grateful to have been in such a warm, welcoming space with people who truly support books, creativity, and Black authors. Can’t wait for the next one ✨
