Books by Jamaican Authors

Well, I still consider myself Jamaican although I left the island so many years ago, and since I wrote a book I think my book should be first mentioned here.

Here is my self-help book, check me out.

 I am in the process of writing a fictional movie script. Hopefully this one actually makes it to production. As soon as it is published, I will add the cover to this page.

I have included two chapters on another fictional book I am writing depicting the life of a youth in Jamaica. I welcome your thoughts about it. It is titled "Testimony of one Jamaican."

What about other notable Jamaican authors. Who do you think is worthy of a shout out on this page?

If you are also a writer, and want to share some of your material, just provide a link to some of your material down below.

Just then I remembered my grandmother and all the different type of teas that she would drink, and I thought, "Man! all this information is about to be lost with our aged population unless someone does something about it.

I will do my best to gather information about Natural remedies our fore parents used to take, but I need help on this one. Consult the old folk, the Rasta-man down the street and find out what to use for different ailments of the body.
