Day 10 of #authorlifemonth favorite non author photo Okay so I totally feel bad for skipping yesterday but I couldn't come up a challenge overcome that my sister @dos_twinjas didn't already address. So this is my favorite picture of my hair after being natural for 6 months after a big chop in September 15'. This was the first time I ever wore my natural texture out after rocking braids nearly every month after I big chopped. I was so afraid that everyone would hate it and some of my family members still do but accepting my hair's natural texture has been a pivotal time for me. Being a black Latina we grow up thinking that beautiful hair is straight aka European hair and it took me 29 years to realize that's not the only type of hair that's amaZing! Just like #Beyonce said "I like my baby hair with baby hair and afros". That line has become my mantra 😂😂😂 In this picture you would think I've always Been confident about it which is why I love it so much. Sorry for the essay😍😎 P.S. my hair is even longer now and ten times bigger and more amazing! #naturalista #curlbox #4chair #naturalhair #Afro #afrohair #pajon #afrocubana #afrolatinx #blacklatina #blackgirlmagic #negra

Sooooo it's #authorlifemonth and I'm counting the days in February with hopefully a fresh post. Thanks to the lovely @missdahlelama for creating this challenge!!! Okay so confession, our first book was a YA fantasy called #themarkofnoba that was all types of fun but @dos_twinjas volunteered to show our YA stuff while I did the honors of highlighting the NA and adult books we have coming out. So I bring you #samepage , our debut NA contemporary romance that showcased a less than perfect story of two people perfect for each other with loads of obstacles In their way. Had fun setting up their first installment. Cant wait to finish this baby.

Navigating an All-White Publishing Industry

By Ebony LaDelle, marketing manager at Simon & Schuster

At this year’s Brooklyn Book Festival, I had the pleasure of meeting one of my favorite authors, Edwidge Danticat. When she found out I worked in publishing, she looked at me and said, “So you’re like a unicorn.” “I’m sorry?” I replied, star struck. “You’re one of the few black people who actually work in publishing,” she said, “You’re a unicorn.”

She couldn’t afford to buy me a collection of books, but she made sure to take me to our local library. Goosebumps, The Boxcar Children, The Baby-Sitters Club…those books transported me into a world of make-believe.
