Im Putting Good Use To My Africana And African American Studies Minor Because A Few Weeks Ago I Wrote

I’m putting good use to my Africana and African American Studies minor because a few weeks ago I wrote a scene in We Faceless Folk where Rachel stops at a grocery store by Chinwe’s house to buy her mom a cake.

But I learned in a lecture this week that most Black neighborhoods in the U.S. have way too many liquor stores and not enough grocery stores.

So now I’m going to change this scene to draw attention our reality. I’m still figuring out what to do with it but I think I want her to look at a map on her phone to find grocery stores and seeing none in that area before driving over.

A few days ago I wrote a sentence with the phrase “you to be” and google tried to correct it to youtube lol. It’s so dumb

Was re-reminded recently of this ridiculousness from google docs. For context, my character is climbing down a cliff.

writeblr!! tell us, what keeps you from giving up on your work?

It’s the time of year where at work we’re getting ready to publish our books of student writing. Last year my supervisor asked me to write blurbs for each section of our book and I guess she was impressed because she asked me to do it again…for 3 books this time. She told me yesterday that I have a way with words.
