Okay, so I'm still working on Someone Like Them. I'm on my fourth edrt and going strong, because the critique on my first edit wasn't very good, and I'm waiting for the critique on my third edit. This covid crisis has been good for me insofar as I've given myself more time to do just about everything, which improves the quality of what I do, from writing books to writing plays. I'm proud of that, and it's a lesson I should have learned sooner. But, better later than never.
The Black Lives Matters movement has turned out to be quite an advantage for Americans in general, but for black creativity specifically. I've never seen so many pubishers looking for African American material, or so many producers looking for African American content. I'm thinking about acquiring a literary agent for Someone Like Them and for another one of my novels I hope to re-release. I figure that I ought to strike while the iron is hot. Who knows how long this interest in black writers will last. If we go by historical trends in this country this interest in all things black coud be over by the end of the year.
That's all for now. Stay Safe!
