Biographical Sketch

 

In February 2012, Burgundy Ink was established as a sole proprietorship and has maintained that status since its inception. As a natural part of life, growth is inevitable, things move forward. In doing so, Burgundy Ink evolved into a company offering a wide range of services based on the intersection of the founder's desire for spoken word and her passion for writing. Burgundy Ink offers services that allow clients to become part of a sprouting family, to utilize their talents and to receive recognition. In February 2018, that inevitable change occurred. Introducing Lavaughn T. Simmons, a creator who loves her own creations, Burgundy Ink presents its two latest creations; Intersections and Author Addict.

Uniting talent with opportunity, connecting testimonials to devotees and merging strength with iron are all two lines meeting at a point.  Ladies and gentlemen, those are the crossways and junctions forged in our congregation. Greetings, this is the corner of poetry and expression, home to originality and appeal. Intersections is a Spoken Word Society and a program offering poets and authors both a platform and an opportunity to address life's harmony and struggle which occurs at these intersections.
