Playing Army is described as "a captivating read that serves as a reminder of what has and hasn't changed for women in the military." (Daria Summers). It's a beautiful story of a woman's desire to live up to her own expectations as she struggles to connect with her own father, who never returned from Vietnam. Congratulations, Nancy!
Menah Adeola Eyaside Pratt's book was released on April 2, 2024! Blackwildgirl: A Writer’s Journey to Take Back Her Superpower is a 45 year journey, based on 45 years of journals. Inspired by Alice Walker’s journals, Jasmine Mans’ poetry, bell hooks’ black girlhood story, Audre Lorde’s biomythography, Nikki Giovanni’s poems, Maya Angelou’s autobiographies, and Clarissa Pinkola Estes’ indigenous stories, Blackwildgirl is a deeply reflective autobiography of acts, stages, scenes, and letters to Love beginning at the age of eight. It is a twelve stage initiation journey through journals to reclaim what was lost in a bargain made by Pratt's parents without her consent–her childhood queen superpower. I loved working with Menah; purchase her incredible book here.
Kathleen Rose Morgan's book The Seller of Secrets was released on June 11th!
Working with Kathleen was a truly incredible experience, and this book is so remarkable. I couldn't put her first draft down, and as I read to the end I literally had chills. This is a heartbreaking yet ultimately triumphant story told with so much wisdom and compassion. A must-read; you can pick it up here.
