A few of you are new, new in that you're thinking "Who is the person writing this email." Most of you fall some where in between.
For those of you that I don't know yet, I would love to get to know you better. Could you complete this survey? ~isis

On April 30th, join us for a Q&A with Mororwa Yejide to discuss her latest book Creatures of Passage.
"Comparisons to Toni Morrison's masterpiece Beloved always perk up our ears, but in the case of Morowa Yejidé’s Creatures of Passage the hype is warranted...History-haunted in the best sense, readers shouldn’t miss this mythic thriller."

We are so excited for The Effluent Engine: The Audio Play! For lovers of NK Jemisin, you will recall this story from How Long Til Black Futures Month.
“Jessaline thought she saw the muscles in his forearm flex to pull the trigger—and then the sixgun was in her hand, its wooden grip warm and almost comforting.”
The masterful N.K. Jemisin weaves an intriguing spy thriller with a thread of steampunk and a touch of Sapphic romance. Lush, daring, and sultry, this slice of history with a jaunty caper edge keeps the heart pumping.
