Back in 2001 as a poet who had conquered her dreams of independently selling a high volume of poetry chap books without knowing about mainstream marketing, quality media began to notice my work and soon my silent purpose and mission of "GIVING BACK" to youth charities and educational programs as a devoted educator became a fruition.
Founded on the "Disilgold 5 Principles of Success Formula" which I published in a book called The Disilgold Way (exclusively available at www.LiteraryDiva.com), the Disilgold.com YOUnity Guild Awards made headlines in The Daily News, Amsterdam News, New York Beacon, Caribbean Life and more. Thousands of entries arrived and have been loyal supporters ever since who recognize the foundation of a quality awards entity created on the cusp of the millennium by an African American woman, educator, poet and humanitarian.
I had no idea that my passions and journey as THE WRITER would compel me to build the first Disilgold founded African-American Literary Network Association and answer my calling and abilities since highchool when I auditioned models for fund-raiser fashion shows to scout for more talented people from multi-industries.
By 2003, Disilgold was noted as a TOP LITERARY MEDIA MOGUL both online and offline. Initially, a live award show that attracted guests beyond capacity, the YOUnity Guild Awards arrived online to reach a more universal audience and designed to "Honor, recognize, induct, award and celebrate the brightest and best from multi-industries at Disilgold SOUL Magazine on www.disilgold.com.
Now people from multi-industires around the world can celebrate, vote and join in the fun by every New Year's Eve at 12 midnight on the 1st and largest African American Literary Awards Show online, often imitated, but never duplicated, for there is only 1 Disilgold SOUL winner for each category. Disilgold is YOU! The legacy lives on.
Sincerely,
Heather Covington
(CEO/FOUNDER of Disilgold "Publishing, Publicity, Media & Awards"
"Imitation is the most flattering compliment in life, but awards time stamp the origination of great works and projects you birthed thus perserving your legacy and greatness forever without contest!"
