In 1990-92, Adams impressed with the vast pool of Black talent in the media,
began to compile a listing for her publication, Black Authors and Published
Writers Directory. Over 1,000 Black authors, publishers, producers,
distributors, song, film, and playwrights, agents, librarians, talk show
hosts, consultants, advertising agents and other marketing resources were
listed in the book. In 2003, Adams created and founded BAPWDcom the
official website for Black Authors & Published Writers Directory. Like the
new book, the website is a "must" for anyone interested in networking with major
Black media professionals and services.
Native Mississippian, Adams is the first Black signatory agent (1994, Writers Guild of
America). She has assisted and represented several talents with
book publishing projects and is editor and publisher of Black Literary Players (BLP),
an on-line newsletter update for the Black Authors and Published Writers
Directory. Published monthly, the BLP newsletter update
features Black authors and published writers, profiles, literary and media
professionals and services. Her Rochester, Michigan firm, The Grace
Company, also acts as a distribution agent for several publishing entities
that provide material that meet the needs of business.
