Episode 55: Repositioning a book

Hi, folks. In addition to this pre-planned episode on repositioning a book, I want to include some links to support black authors and their books. At this time, it is especially important to hear and uplift their voices.

As writers, it’s crucial that we do our part to support black voices, love one another, and create a world where we all get respect, no matter our color.

Black authors, thank you for your beautiful voices. I am listening.
