New Book Alert; Legacies in Letters: An African-American Word Search Journey

Gary R. Brown — Sun, 7 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Although sitting at Amazon KDP for approval and release, here's my latest book creation.

Discover. Remember. Celebrate.

Legacies in Letters: An African-American Word Search Journey is more than a puzzle book — it is a celebration of culture, history, and resilience.

Inside, you’ll find 80 engaging word searches, each paired with a short story that highlights an important event, leader, tradition, or innovation from African-American life. From the Harlem Renaissance to modern voices, from historic struggles to enduring triumphs, every page is both a challenge and a teaching moment.

Perfect for readers of all ages, this collection invites families, students, and puzzle lovers to learn, reflect, and honor the brilliance of Black history — one word at a time. Gary R. Brown

Lucy Knows

Gary R. Brown — Sun, 3 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

I have almost completed a book of short stories this is the synopsis:

– Lucy Knows

Some dreams whisper. Others scream. Lucy hears them all. For years, Aunt Lucy has quietly helped family and friends unravel their most curious, vivid dreams — interpreting them with uncanny accuracy and a heart full of grace. But lately, something has shifted. The dreams are darker. The meanings, more dangerous.

From quiet Hoffman Avenue in Trenton, New Jersey, Lucy’s gift is suddenly taking her places she never asked to go — into visions of death, whispers of betrayal, and hauntings that linger long after the dream ends.

Lucy Knows is a chilling, soulful collection of suspenseful tales where folklore, family, and fear collide. Guided by her sharp insight and the love of her devoted grandchild, Lucy must navigate the line between insight and intrusion… and what happens when knowing too much comes at a cost.

----

I'm excited to share that I'm interviewing with the incredible dream interpreter who inspired the book! I can't wait to delve into the insights they've shared. I expect to wrap up the book by the 13th of this month, and I'm thrilled to see it all come together!

Working a New Project

Gary R. Brown — Fri, 25 Jul 2025 00:00:00 +0000

I have been brainstorming about creating a series of stories that I am certain someone has already created, if not already mastered elsewhere, called the AI Files or something more clever. I want them to be loosely based on AI-related and infused with AI data, directions, and news. I want to have fun in this genre.
