Dominique M. Carson Pens Biography on an Artist She Says Has Played an Intricate Role in Her Life as an Avid Music Lover
Dominique M. Carson is a freelance journalist, researcher, massage therapist, writer, reporter, award-winning community activist, and author. Her work has been featured in several publications, including Ebony.com, The Grio, NBC News, and Brooklyn news media outlets, to name a few. Carson’s writing journey began over 20 years ago at eight years old, a troublesome period in her life. She discovered that writing could be a valuable tool when going through personal challenges as a child. She shares that her family members-uncle and cousins influenced her to express her creativity on paper as a therapeutic source. Carson is most passionate about strengthening her relationship with God, family, friends, profession, and giving back to her community. Her overall goal is to facilitate people’s lives with her hands and words.
Carson has interviewed over 100 notable figures in entertainment and is the author of Jon B: Are You Still Down, a book that explores the 20+ career journey of R&B legend, Jon B and his rise to stardom, successes, failures, and redemption that led him to be one of the most renowned artists in the music industry. “The book celebrates Jon B and his trailblazing contributions to R&B that have been overlooked for several years,” Carson says. “I wanted to write a biography on a man who has played an intricate role in my life as an avid music lover. He was determined to make a name for himself in R&B, and he achieved his goal. Jon’s collaboration with others opened the doors for many other African American male rappers to work with other singers outside of their race.”
Carson says that her autobiography on Jon B is essential, especially now, because it encourages readers to learn from their failures, ignore the naysayers, take risks, and let their talent speak for itself. “Readers would learn so much about Jon B and his rise to superstardom. You can achieve your goals as long as there is passion and purpose behind your mission,” she says.
“An inspirational vision is not a pipe dream. Give it a chance to mature and reveal its own potential. Faith is the light that illuminates your pathway!”
Carson leaves readers with these words: “Success is truly a journey, not a destination. The roadway to success is not always calculated, but you can’t be afraid to fail. I realized in my life that my triumph moments were created after experiencing some of my biggest failures and or valleys. A Lyft driver told me that we don’t have problems; we have incidents. You will only have a problem if you do not wake up the next day. And from that ride, it has been my slogan for success and life. We are not immune to life challenges; it comes along with success but how you handle them determines the outcome of your life.
