This week we are thrilled to talk to Pamela K. Johnson: a writer, editor, and filmmaker. During the pandemic, Pamela published debut op-eds in both the LA and NY Times. She’s deeply engaged in all manner of art, education, culture, and community—and those interests resonate beautifully in her recently published work.

During our chat, Pamela pays due credit to her earliest writing mentors, and then discusses how to publish, and teach, the op-ed itself. Pamela is also currently hard at work on a historical novel, and we talk about how she sustains her many ongoing creative projects.
