And the Winner Might Be ...

I’m proud to announce that my book, “Dict Jokes,” is a nonfiction nominee for the 2015 Wheatley Book Awards! My Grandfather Lord would be so proud. He loved Phyllis Wheatley so much he chose that name for one of my aunts! | Ms. Wheatley (c. 1753 - December 5, 1784) was the first published African-American woman and first published African-American poet.
