Imani: Welcome to The Lounge. Let's start off with a simple
icebreaker and begin with your story, just who is Saniya Solis?
Saniya: Who am I? In a nut shell, I grew up in the South Bronx and later moved to Spanish Harlem. At
the age of 18, I joined the military and have been all around the world. I'm currently
still in the military and retire in 2016. I have an Associate's in
Criminal Justice, a Bachelor's in Business Administration and am currently
working on my Master's. I'm a mother of 3 and a wife.
Tell us more about your latest project. What's the
inspiration behind this book.
My latest project is called East River Secret. The
inspiration behind this book is my love for the understanding of the dark side
of the human mind. It is completely different from my first book, Karma,
which focused on the emotional battles a person endures in their life.
With East River Secret, I focused on the mental battles a person endures in
their life.
Briefly, explain what makes your book different from the
vast choices in the same genre?
My book is different because though it is listed under
Urban, I like to call it Urban Contemporary Suspense. Most Urban
literature is hard core "ghetto" reflecting on drugs, sex, and
money, however, my books have a mixture of everything in it
while making relevance to the "ghetto" environment and the
struggles those living in this environment face within themselves. I have
my characters question the "why" in their life. Why am I going
through this? Why wasn't I raised with a silver spoon? Why do
"my people" blame living in the hood for the reasons their dreams
never became a reality.
Tell us more about the development of the characters.
First, I want to stress that the foundation of my character
development is ensuring that all my characters are realistic and emotionally in
tune to the masses. I like for my readers to know my character as a
"regular" person first, a character that will remind my readers of
someone they know, including themselves. I then like to have my character
face a BELIEVABLE situation that again, can happen in real life. I think
that is the key to keeping readers to continue turning the pages. Readers
want to know how or what is the character going to do and most importantly, is
it an action the reader could see themselves doing as well?
What have you learned (or still learning) since being in the
business?
I've learned that this business is not easy. You really
have to market yourself as well as your book in a variety of ways.
Furthermore, you have to diversify the network of people in your circle in
order to learn and get your name out there.
What is your dream collaboration? With whom, and why?
My dream collaboration? Good question. To be
honest, I've thought of this question numerous times and though I've thought of
many well-known authors, I would have to say that I would want to collaborate
with a new author because they are just as hungry as I am to become known in
this industry.
Finally, share with us something you've never mentioned
publicly since being an author; such as, a quirk or a hidden talent. I'm sure
readers would like to know.
I have a quirk of always organizing my groceries on the
conveyer belt. I will dig through my cart to make sure I get all the items that
can be grouped together out and neatly stack them accordingly. As for a
hidden talent, I can sing.
Short Excerpt:
We were friends for about a year and a half before we took
it to the next level. It felt awkward at first. Mainly because he was 18 years
older than me and I was used to him being my friend. I always felt like an old
soul in a young body so I personally didn’t mind the age difference but we
chose to keep our relationship on the low to prevent stare...s and bonchinche.
When we first kissed, we accidently bumped teeth, laughed, and blamed it on
being nervous. We had just come back from the movies when we first had sex. I
remembered how eager he seemed to want to please me. For once, I felt what it
was like to have a man really take his time with me. Shaun licked every inch of
my body, from the scar on my knee to the juicy flesh of my breast. I watched as
he slowly parted my legs, licked his lips and slowly placed his tongue on my
clit. I could feel the pressure from his tongue as he sized it up. Then he
tilted his head and began to lick in a steady and constant motion, occasionally
licking and kissing on the lips just outside my pink palace. He was actually pretty
good; gotta love those older men. Most men think they know how to get their
grub on but they lick on pussy the way a dog licks its ass; carelessly. I had
to open my eyes and see what he was doing. The more I watched him indulge
himself in my homemade juices the hotter I got. I guess he felt me staring cuz
he returned the stare back as he simultaneously thrust his tongue in and out of
my sugar walls. It was the most erotic moment. It was like he was telling me
“yea, I’m all in your pussy and you like it!” Right then and there I felt the
sexual tension in my body. I began to feel a momentary sense of suspension,
quickly followed by an intensely pleasurable feeling that began at my clit and
swiftly spread throughout my pelvis. It was like this inner body explosion. In
one word it was beautiful. He raised his eyebrows and put a grin on his face
then kissed my pussy. I took that gesture as if he felt like he was a one man
army and had just conquered the Roman Empire .
He was getting ready to get on top of me when I put my hand on top of his chest
and gently pushed him back. “My turn.” I seductively whispered.
