It's just occurred to me. It's been ELEVEN years since I started this blog. Man...time really flies by when you're not looking. 😲😲😲😲
I started this blog right before I published my second book "Raise Your Brown Black Fist 2: MORE Political Shouts of an Angry Afro Latino" (Outskirts Press, 2011). I started this to be an outlet for me as an activist, and also to help with the promotion of my budding writing career, at the time. I'm glad that I've remained consistent with it; I may not post as much as I did back when I first started, but I'm still keeping this blog alive. Eleven years, and fourteen books later, my blog is still my main platform to promote myself as a writer, and a way for me to promote my activism in the literary arts.
I had my concerns with starting the blog; I didn't want it to be an outlet for constantly ranting about one issue, or another. I get that I sometimes do sound a bit sour on here, considering the issues that I've been having with poor sales and all...but, for the most part...I'm providing myself with a voice, and keeping myself out there.
Thank you to all that have supported me, and continue to follow the blog. No matter where I share this, may you continue to follow my blog, and enjoy my posts. I hope that you find the blog posts informative, and also entertaining. Please continue to support the blog, and support my books.
Keep the fist raised.
