Culture and Inspiration according to Myisha Cherry
I live in a typical Brownstone Apartment in Brooklyn. NYC is already crowded and pressed for space and it is reflected in our living space. At times, I complain about what may appear like a small apartment, particularly in comparsion to the down south homes I’m more familiar with. But my perspective about what small […]
Cancer sucks
brave souls who strive to live with it should be praised
doubters who believe in its power more than the power of the human spirit
should be quiet
So after coping a recipe courtesy of Emeril from TV the other day, I got the confidence to try peppered steamed red snapper out. It wasn’t bad. My bud Serena and I scraped our plates. Geesh, I’m getting so much better at this cooking thing. yah!
So about a year ago I was introduced to a writer in Brooklyn named Jean. Last year, Jean introduced himself to me via email and told me that he had heard that I had publishing experience and wanted to meet me for dinner for advice. I was down. We connected, talked, exchanged our writing journey, […]
So Im trying to do some different, drastic, life changing yet beneficial things in my life this year. You see, I’m trying to switch it up. And after years of procrastinating, I proclaim that this is the year that I will begin the habit of cooking. Now, don’t judge me or think that I’m less […]
I want to make a confession and say that the recent Snicker commericials showcasing legendary celebrities are one of the most hilarious things I’ve seen. And even though they are not enough to make me eat a snickers, what the commerials do is make me appreciate such legends all the more and it massages my […]
I never really write personal reflections here. This blog for me has been for inspirational and cultural sharing of sorts. However, there comes a time when you desire to talk and not open you mouth at all and what better way to do that than through writing.
These last 4 years has been a space of […]
Hey, sometimes inspiration speaks to you in the weirdiest of places and through regular objects and pieces. Lately, advertisements and sign messages have been giving me an inspirational word. Something is going on in the universe yall. lol.
Anywhoo, I’ll thought Ill share a few Ive seen in New York City and San Francisco. If you’ve […]
So I just returned back from the Bay area. I spent 4 days just relaxing and enjoying friends. I also fell in love with San Francisco. It reminds me of a hotter New York City. Anyway, below are a few pics and I’m back to daily blogging. Let me also mention that the Rest did […]
So Kobe Bryant graced the cover of GQ in December as the champion of the year, but now hes back again. Kobe has been killing lately, setting records, winning games and even through injuries he’s refused to stop playing. Through his actions he’s teaching us all about passion, drive, and resilence and Im inspired in life each time he plays on the […]
I am a writer and I am proud about it. But most of the time, writing is a very lonely task. Writing and thinking is always done in private and if we are lucky a piece of the world may read it. If you are a part of this club, say amen.

I love to laugh. I mean who doesn’t except the Grinch. But I also love creativity and I get inspired and energized by it when I witness it. I came across comedian Demetri Martin about 2 years ago. Of course he was funny, but I was blown away more with how he mixed his rare […]
I love New York City as strong as the next man. Neue Magazine showed love to my awesome city this month by getting Graphic Artists to submit typography work inspired by the city that never sleeps. Below are some examples.

Recently Pharrell Williams attended MIDEM 2010 conference, a music business conference held in France, and gave a Keynote speech and Q & A moderated by Rob Stone. In the interview, Pharrell offers some pretty informative and inspirational thoughts on creativity, business, teamwork, giving your best, and implementing ideas.
I dont know much about my family history. I never met any of my grandparents. My mother was a foster child and so going back and researching is quite difficult. But there is still apart of me that wishes I knew where I came from and who were my ancestors. Perhaps this is why Professor […]
I watched the Apple Keynote yesterday and Yes I am getting an Ipad this Spring. But as innovative as Apple is, I must admit Mad TV came up with the idea first lol. Check it out below.
