An amazing night at Chevalier’s Books! It became a full Juneteenth celebration with specialty character themed cocktails, red velvet cake + 15% of proceeds of THE GREAT MANN went to help restore the historic Black neighborhood of Altadena that was ravaged by the fires. A standing-room

Had a great conversation with Tanya Acker (of Hot Bench fame) on her podcast. As a minority you frequently find yourself loving the art & work of people who held no love for you. We get into that, using historical fiction to fight back against erasure & more 💙📚
