Book excerpt: A daughter of a Legendary Blues Recording Artist known as “Lonnie Brooks” Being a daughter of a Blues Legend, living in a house of blues filled with blues, does not mean I was born with a silver spoon. I share my true story of my childhood mischief, growing pains, racial persecution, personal struggle, abuse and addiction, to eventual recovery and psychological healing through my strong faith. Writing my book with the guidance of God, hearing his voice lead my long road to healing. I did not seek professional help, like so many of us. I rendered every fiber of my being into the trust of my heavenly father above, I listened, I followed his instructions and here it is! My story, my journey. In this world today, there are so many women just like me. I held on to secrets of abuse, I never spoke about my struggles with my father or my family for many years until this book. I’m here to tell you now “Man, woman or child” help is near. I encourage you to write it, or seek professional help, I encourage you to let it go from your soul. My experiences writing for a promised healing, a soul cleansing, helped me open up and learn more about myself. I hope and pray my story can help the next person, I hope my story can help you! You will also find stories such as, how I witnessed my dad’s struggles in the music industry to his excels, finally making it to a higher level in his career. I share, through it all how my dad raised us, his friendship. I express the love my dad has for his music, his song writing, his guitar, his dignity, his dreams and his family.
