Romance books are picking up steam 📚💘 It’s the highest-earning genre of fiction, and library checkouts are expected to break records this year at Charlotte’s library. That’s not to mention the romance-only bookstores and book clubs forming around the city. Read more ⬇️

Spent last week in DC for the final summit of the Poynter-Koch Media and Journalism Fellowship. So thankful for the community and support system created by @Poynter this past year. The future of local journalism is in the best hands. #localnewsisnotdead

Thank you for the shoutout @kristenhare!! While I was a Poynter-Koch fellow this past year, I had the opportunity to complete a project to serve my community and newsroom. I had so much fun building the Charlotte Starter Kit and am excited to launch it soon, so stay tuned 👀

It's simple and brilliant.

Today's Ledger: Some residents are tiring of Airbnb party houses in their neighborhoods, and they want something done. Other NC cities are putting in restrictions, but Charlotte is not. @lindzbanks found some of the houses -- with photos & video! https://t.co/cK3gEhIXBl

Career Move! We heard from @lindzbanks ’22 — a new staff writer with locally owned @CltLedger. “I’m preparing, writing and presenting #localnews stories through an online newsletter format,” she told us, “with a focus on under-reported neighborhoods.” #UNC22 #starthereneverstop

The School for Good Mothers by Jessamine Chan has been on my TBR list for quite some time. I think this is my sign to finally read it.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

I’ve read a couple of great books this year and wanted to share some of my favorites so far. What have you been reading this summer?

[Lindsey Banks @lindzbanks]

Today's Ledger newsletter 🧵: Charlotte has 1 @Tours_By_Locals tour guide, and his name is Ruben Ordonez. He charges $200 for a 3-hour walking tour of uptown and says people pay it, mostly those in town for business or visiting family. https://t.co/zJKuxX2PZy
