We may be a little late for Hanukkah and Eid al-Adha, but that doesn't mean the season for giving is over! For the month of December, we are hosting a series of interviews of authors, bloggers, agents, editors and many more who promote diversity in books. Some will be traditionally published, some self published, and we will also be hosting a giveaway of several ebooks, as well as an audiobook, a 5 dollar Amazon giftcard for the US site, and a bundle featuring Tiffany Trent's books "The Unnaturalists" and an ARC for it's sequel "The Tinker King!"
Our first guest will be Steampunk fiction author Balogun Ojetade! Not only does he star a strong historical figure like Harriet Tubman as his leading lady in his "Moses: The Chronicles of Harriet Tubman", he drops her off in a world he created, as well as battle an often invisible war in the Black Community: Colorism.
