I can either finish this chapter of my Middle Grade Coming of Age Horror, I can finish the comic pitch or I can finish this pilot. All three cannot be done today I fear.

And let it be known: yes, all Black nerd creatives know each other and talk and ride for each other. So come correct or you will be traveling alone.

Art requires you to see your own story as worthwhile. Most of what this generation of Black artists face is a never-ending choir and lists of who they won't or can't be. Check out the full episode: youtu.be/irn5h1-CxNQ?.... #Art #BlackBooks #History

And we're off to the printers for my DC comics debut in Justice League: Dream Girls #2! Make sure to pre-order your copy and give Morgan Hampton a 'ring' for future Green Lantern stories. Was super special to collaborate with my friends at DC this time around. Looking forward to the future. 💜

I have a flame in the pit of my chest for that nonBlack queer agent who asked for my Manuscript durong PITMAD and then trash talked the Hood and my Manuscript and opening in the hood for "too long" to all of his followers. Its nothing but smoke. We cannot be friends. Im happy they review bombed ys.
