just a reminder that the degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth they can accept about themselves without running away

It would be a shame to encourage folks to use banned book lists to do strange things like
-check them out regularly at the library
-request the library order them if they don’t have them
-buy them
-start or support banned book clubs
-organize a banned book kids story time
A real shame

Today, I found out that the Department of Defense banned the Well-Read Black Girl anthology by Glory Edim. I was one of its contributors.

I'm really hurt right now. So if you have it in you, please buy books by Black women from independent bookstores.

Personally, I am much more concerned with whether Meals on Wheels recipients will continue to receive their food than I am with what a celebrity is going to be eating at the Super Bowl.

For me the goal in 2025 is this: amidst the work, amidst the chaos and the worry, amidst of all of what is to come and what is to be done about it... I am going to aggressively pursue joy both in my writing and out of it. Less a resolution, more a dogged, committed mission to seek joy big and small.

For those of you that remember my story about my Apple Watch leading to the discovery of me having a heart issue (left ventricular hypertrophy)… just had my cardiologist follow up to confirm it has reversed due to my lifestyle changes. No more meds. No more monitors. No more visits.

I could cry.

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.
