Rachel CharleneVerified account @RachelCharleneLHi! I’m writing a piece for@BitchMedia about#publishingpaidme, & am looking to talk to pub’d Black authors who have thoughts, or Black writers who have considered trying to publish a book but are re-thinking it given the rates shared. My DMs are open, email in bio. Thanks!1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -
