Pinch me! This Saturday, I will be a panelist at the Bay Area Book Festival. I can't wait to be on the stage with young writers from my Write Your Story cohort, an amazing Cinnamon Girl program. This past year, I was coached by acclaimed authors of color and finished a novel (coming soon!) and wrote a short story to be published in Cinnamon Girl's annual anthology.
My panel will explore finding and staying true to your voice, overcoming your internal critic, writing as a form of empowerment, and the delight and liberation found in sharing your own unique story.
If you're free, make your way to Berkeley for a fun and FREE family day. Here's the deets on the panel: “Until the Lion Learns to Write”: How to Write Your Story with Cinnamongirl
Saturday, May 4 | 4:00 PM - 4:45 PM
Berkeley Public Library - Teen Room
