Follow the story of 7-year-old Destini, who wants more than anything to dance but is banned from her first recital because her long locs seemingly don't fit the mold of a prima ballerina. Little readers however, will see that Destini won't let anyone else define her beauty or her destiny.
Based on true experiences, I Just Kept Spinning, is Destini's first published work. Her story has been featured in The Commercial Appeal, Essence Magazine and on WMC Channel 5 in Memphis, TN.
