About the Book

Humble beginnings make for spectacular endings; but this is not the end, it is just another chapter in the life of Josephine April Washington, a woman who has loved and lost, came and left, grew and then transformed into who she is today – a great poet, a warm spirit, and a proud mother of seven.

She is the woman everyone loves or would love to know. Josephine is a woman of our time. She accepts people for who they are and deals with them on their level. She accepts the woman who sleeps with a man on the first date and the woman who won’t even kiss on the first date. She is a person for the people, not some people, but all people; and in this book she does just what the title says, Talk to Your Heart.


About the Author

A little girl from the streets of Baltimore, Maryland once sat on the steps of her East Monument home near Old Town Mall, looked around at her surroundings, and saw that the boy next door was talking to every girl that walked by, trying to get a date. She then saw the man a few doors up mad about the lottery number he missed. A boy across the street was staring out of an upstairs window; she thought, "He must have been sent to his room." Surprisingly, she knew everything that was going on. She then decided to write down all her observations. When she took her notion to her exceptionally wise parents, Joseph and Evelyn Washington, they were thrilled. Her mother, who enjoyed reading, would particularly enjoy reading her daughter’s stories. The little girl, Josephine, was the seventh child of sixteen, a fact that would ensure she would have plenty of material to write about. Her passion for writing grew from there.

Josephine got older and married her teenage beau and love of her life, Larry Commodore Together they had seven children: five girls, Patricia, now 30, Michelle, 27, Rochelle, 22, Lisa, 20, Sonia, 13; and two boys, Larry Jr., 18, and Vernon, 17. They also raised two boys from the neighborhood during their 33 wonderful years of marriage. Unfortunately, on May 23, 1999 she became a widow, and has since replaced the emptiness left by her husband’s passing with the love and devotion of her 14 grandchildren.

Today Josephine still lives in Baltimore. She has written six books: Let Me Talk to Your Heart, Love Touch, My Internal Thoughts of GOD, Loving a Married Man, The Stranger We Became, and The Ugly Castle. She aspires to be a household name, with her refreshing free-spirited thoughts, and her unique look on love, heartbreak, and social philosophy. She would like the world to enjoy her writings of poetry, poems, prose, stories, and song lyrics. She invites you to take a walk through the valley of her thoughts and take note of her gift for understanding the heart.
