MSWL: I specialize in romance, but love ALL stories by and for Black readers. I know I do not write romance lol, but I read it voraciously. No white people is a plus, juicy juicy DRAMA DRAMA a double plus. If you don't write romance, I love speculative books that are authentically grounded in the real world and Black culture. Any BIPOC that does this I'd love to read it!
