TJ Beitelman is a writer and teacher who most recent books have been published by the prestigious Black Lawrence Press. We talk about the relationship he's developed with his publisher, the way he thinks of his audience, and how he makes a living. One of my favorite takeaways from this talk is TJ's assertion that, "everybody lucks into everything," which says a lot about his humility but also puts our efforts at getting published and making a living as writers into very good perspective.
