Too Many Irons in the Fire and They’re All Smoking

There is a new inspirational book out that I would like to bring to your attention.

Dr. Cynthia Bond Hopson (pictured to Oprah's immediate right) has recently released, “Too Many Irons in the Fire and They’re All Smoking.” Dr. Hopson is my mentor, prayer warrior and soror, and I count it an honor and privilege to call her a friend. She keeps me straight, and that is a job all by itself! A few weeks ago, I was blessed to receive a signed copy of “Too Many Irons…,” which I believe is a great gift for any occasion.

“In this little book, as in her popular Bad Hair Days, Rainy Days, and Mondays, she offers a month’s worth of wisdom, advice, and encouragement for women in the form of 31 short daily meditational readings,” reports the publisher.


Dr. Hopson has written thought-provoking and inspirational columns, feature articles, and speeches. She has been nominated for teaching excellence and has been named to the Who’s Who Among American Teachers five times. Formerly associate professor of journalism at the University of Memphis, she is assistant general secretary of the Black College Fund and Ethnic Concerns for the United Methodist Board of Higher Education and Ministry in Nashville, Tennessee.

This is Dr. Hopson’s second inspirational book. “Bad Hair Days, Rainy Days, and Mondays Wisdom and Encouragement to Lift a Woman’s Spirit” was her first. Both books can be purchased at Amazon.com or obtained through your local bookstore.

Continue to walk in your blessings and remember that eagles fly with eagles! Soar, girlfriend, soar… I am flying right behind you!
