I have a project of 60,000 words that I would like to be considered for epublishing.  It's a novel entitled Beach by Seawall that was inspired by those Guyanese who ventured to the United States to work, study and to explore personal goals so as to make Guyana a better place.

Do we marry the person we love?  Could a person love more than one person at the same time?  Are sexual relationships always a mistake in judgment?  What is the role of race in societies?  Beach by Seawall weaves an intriguing story of four lovers that had someone else of significance in their lives.

Learn about Kevin Thompson.  Was his ethical orientation a farce?  Meet his first lover Gwen Philips.  Must she play the role of a home wrecker?  Is she guilty of seduction?  Was their case one of consenting adults?

See what you think about the studious Billy Preston, his move to New York City and how his wife Nora fits into his unpredictable lifestyle.  Was she naive in her thinking about relationships?

All these events were part of major themes of historical, political and social unrest of Guyana that culminated with its independence and continued into the early 1980s in the United States.

I am a retired professor from the department of mass communications and journalism at Norfolk State university, VA.  I have authored Make Better Videos with your Camcorder (TAB BOOKS 1991), co-edited a Handbook on Mass Media in the United States and Mass Media in 2025 (Greenwood 1994 and 2001 respectively).
