In this episode, Kenya interviews two special guests: good friends, and two of the most LITTY (ayyy) Black women ensconced in the Lit community today, LIT-erally. She spoke with Melody Simpson, an up-and-coming YA author, who is the Creator, Editor, TV & Film Critic of Hollywood The Write Way, and the Founder and CEO of Melanin in YA, a resource for all things Black in traditional Young Adult publishing. And the Queer Black Woman who created the #SupportBlackWomenWhoWriteWeirdShit hashtag, Teri Clarke, who is a published Horror/Fantasy author that writes under the name Zin E. Rocklyn. Teri has a novella on the way, Flowers for the Sea, (currently available for pre-order on Amazon).
The friends talk about everything from their current projects and being a part of the literary writing community, to how living through the pandemic still affects their creative process.
