I published my first work of fiction in college. Made it into a film a couple years later, thanks to pretty dope social media strategy. And now it’s in the film circuit. Pretty awesome.
I would like to meet other writers of color (because I don’t really know many “irl”). This would double as a dope invite list for a party!
