I contain multitudes.

I haven't stopped biting my nails, but I've stopped cutting pizza with butcher knives.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

As-promised, here's an ever-growing list of Black (and a few other POC) chick-lit writers. Not only will buying these books support Black female voices, it'll also open more doors into the publishing industry, a place where Black stories are often dubbed as "special interest:"

A longform reading list featuring 50 years of words from authors like James Baldwin, bell hooks, Kiese Laymon, Roxane Gay, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Toni Morrison, Bayard Rustin, Dr. Brittany Cooper and more. https://t.co/D0FTscKUnG #BlackLivesMatter
