Hearing author Cherry Dawn Fagbemi read a cliffhanger of an excerpt from Bad Seed at a Prince George's Memorial Library System event last year led us to stay in touch. Here's our recent conversation about her life, her work, this book and a future project on this episode of The Bitchy Quill podcast with founder Heather Brooks, who's also the founder of The Write Women Book Fest scheduled for Saturday, July 19 & Sunday, July 20 at the Bowie Comfort Inn & Conference Center in Bowie, Maryland, where this author and 100+ more will engage with readers, give away swag, sell and sign their books on day one; an assortment of panel chats on day two: https://youtu.be/a73_k4DQZKI

This week's BAC (Book Acquisition Compulsion) bookstack includes a hockey romance because the Washington Capitals' first-round playoffs win happened during the start of my hockey romance reading binge so it would be irresponsible for me to tempt fate by not continuing. Plus, ebooks available from the public library through the Libby app.
AND the "Free For All: The Public Library" documentary is excellent!

Life is really challenging for most people in multiple ways right now (and always?). Grant some grace to yourself and others. Hydrate. Rest. Meditate. Pray. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Make space to experience some pleasure every day.
Always wishing you good health, peace of mind & joy.
