My debut novel, Iron Spirit, came out a couple months ago! It's on Amazon KU until the end of January and then will go wide again. a.co/d/eL1xy3E

I'm a nonbinary trans author and one of the characters in this series is trans. (:

This is so true. Don't give up!
Feel like your current draft isn't cutting it? Remember the words of Hemingway: "The first draft of anything is shit." You're sculpting a masterpiece. Give it time to develop.

Black people deserve to be read and to write our stories in our voice (NYT best sellers or otherwise). I made a Starter Pack of Black Authors who you can support, share, engage and loosely follow during and between book tours.

Hit Follow All.

Most everyone is winging it or feels like they're winging it, but this is where communities or writers group thrive! Learn from each other and empower each other to improve!
Do writers feel like other writers know what they're doing, or does nobody know what they're doing? Does anybody know what they're doing?
