Happy Latine Heritage Month! As I get ready for my first event with a table, I'm thinking back to Black History Month when I made a video about sharing what you've read versus a TBR.
I appreciated the vulnerability some creators showed as they realized they hadn't read as many books by Black authors as they thought.
I would invite everyone to engage in the same self-reflection this month.
I've shared one book I narrated by JC Cervantes using TT's book feature in the hopes the app won't bury this post, haha, we'll see.
P.S. while I don't mind people referring to me as Afro-Latina (it's a touch validating), it was very rare in my life up to this point that people engaged with me at the intersection of my many identities. It's usually one or the other with regards to my racial identities (probably because of how I look). I'm working on making them more cohesive inside of myself, but I don't know what that looks like yet.

the plot lines get intense, but at least we get to punch baddies in the face 😉

Replying to @jacqi_lynn A wonderful point that made me think of something else: how different cultures tell stories.
We know culture influenced how writers write stories. It stands to reason that culture also influences our oral storytelling.

Art evolves over time. And our styles evolve too. As we grow and learn we bring more to the table for our authors and for our art.
One of the things that I'm certain has allowed me to grow as quickly as I have business wise, to grow in community, to grow my back catalogue, is the clarity of my brand.
and that clarity includes my performance style.
There is something to be said for understanding your audience as well. if you want to get hired by big publishers, then you may need to alter your style for what they're looking for.
That's not my chosen path, but it is a path.

Whew! I love Greek retellings, so I was over the moon when I got to narrate Book 1 in The Taking of Persephone series!
Blurb:
Before Persephone was known as The Dread Queen, she was but a young goddess who went by the name of Kore, pulling flowers from soil to create life. Nothing more is spoken on the all feared Queen and her rise to power.
Not of her journey.
Not of her time in the realm of the dead where she showed the King of Darkness what it means to be loved.
He claims the Underworld is no place for Love.
She is determined to prove him wrong.
