I'm Eartha, Eartha Watts Hicks. I am the author of Graffiti Mural. Graffiti Mural is a hybrid collection of flash fiction, poetry, lyrics, and personal essays.

I normally favor 1st Person narratives. CONVERSE is one of my first attempts at 3rd Person and one of my personal favorites. CONVERSE is about a gorgeous young brother having a difficult time finding love in New York City because he suffers from Tourette's Syndrome. This Flash Fiction piece is part of my latest release GRAFFITI MURAL.  Available on Kindle and  as a PAPERBACK. BUY LINK: http://amzn.to/2aSiG1W'
