Self-built. Well-read. Always stacked.

just a girl, a growing shelf, and a love for stories that hit hard and linger longer.

Understanding the business behind the art allows us as creatives to move the world into a better direction. Ryan Coogler 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This is all fascinating. I had no idea Ryan Coogler negotiated a contract where he kept final cut, first-line profits, and the rights to SINNERS after 25 years. But the idea of studio execs FREAKING OUT about it ("What if EVERY in-demand creative wants rights over their own work?") is even better.

All the black and brown fantasy and horro authors in the country🙄😒
Using a black movie to promote a book from a rich white author where white vampires in the antebellum south eat enslaved babies while spouting the N-word hundreds of times seems like a colossal fuck up to me
