The Writing Life: A Collection of Essays and Interviews
Check out this book on Goodreads: The Writing Life: A Collection of Essays and Interviews https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/507965.The_Writing_Life
BOOK REVIEW: A great collection of essays to keep aspiring writers encouraged. I especially related to the essay by Gloria Naylor, author of The Women of Brewster Place.

#DailyPrompts #BlackHistoryMonth #poetrychallenge Since I’m new to the field of public school education, I get to see many of our children up close and personal everyday. Most of my interactions are great while some make me concerned about their future. So today’s prompt in honor of BHM, is Black Child or Black Children. Please share your poetry here or join the Facebook group at www.facebook.com/groups/Afrowrimo #writingprojects #writersofcolorunite #BHMPOETRYCHALLENGE #AFROWRIMO https://www.instagram.com/p/CK1Z_rHBjWi/?igshid=1ittqx0kw7qvb

#poetry #DailyPrompts Although the day is almost over, I wanted to share this writing prompt #AcademicInfluences, one I thought was so appropriate after I heard about the passing of one of my favorite college professors. In light of that and #BlackHistoryMonth, as black students, we often have teachers, mentors, professors, who influence who we are and what we become in life and they go above and beyond. Can’t wait to see what you write. And be sure to join the #AfroWriMo group on Facebook, www.facebook.com/groups/Afrowrimo #AfrowrimoPoetryChallenge #BHMPoetryChallenge #28DAYS https://www.instagram.com/p/CKxlDIuBfv0/?igshid=1meoccz7ds692
