Hi, Readers!
Writer's block is something serious this time around, so I've decided to (obviously) take a writing hiatus and refocus my energy. This upcoming fall I'll be transferring to Rutgers for the remainder of my college experience and starting my Africana Studies minor (yay!). During this time I want to catch up on my reading, specifically by writers of color and even more specifically women. I'm looking for more material to write about. Lately I've been so inspired by these Black women I've stumbled upon, and I am in such awe when I read their work. Right now I'm trying to get my hands on Toni Morrison's new novel, God Help the Child. She's one of my favorite writers, and I've heard this one is really good. I also plan on rereading Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston. I was only a junior in high school when I first read it, so I think I'll appreciate more now.
A good writer is an avid reader! Find a good book and try to read a couple of pages a night.
