Rainbow Peeps & Friends, this is me in DC standing outside of a Black owned independent bookstore. I’m supposed to be giving my saddest face because I’d been rejected yet again after proposing that my books be put on their shelves.

Happy National Authors’ Day, Rainbow Peeps & Friends!! 📚
This summer, while chillin’ in the pool under Italian skies, sipping a delicious beverage, (yup, it was hittin’ 😆) I recorded some thoughts on #indieauthors & #indiebookstores

What’s up, Rainbow Peeps & Friends! After the rallies/protests, there’s action.
One of the most powerful ways you can do that is by supporting #indieartists like me! And supporting local businesses, especially #indiebookstores 📚

Rainbow Peeps & Friends, back in June I had the pleasure of being on my first ever author panel @aseatatthetablebooks
My message focused on Toni Morrison’s quote which urges artists to create during times like these. She reminds us that through the artists, “civilizations heal.”
