A black and white meme of a friend holding their friend back from buying new pens. "You've got enough pens... (Your friend) You: "But these are different!!!"

The obsession I have with pens and pencils should be studied.

At the top of the cover, a horned succubus with wings reaches for a haloed woman with braids. The angelic woman is dressed in white and holds a dagger in her right hand.

Her eyes shine red as she meets the devoted gaze of the red wolf on her left. One hand gently holds the wolf's chin. The other is placed reverently on the wolf's mouth.

The Night Chef!

Babygirl using the disposable black girlfriend trope in 2024 was…erm…

Nina and Darakin of my debut novel The Bodyguard’s Bargain by @cenaye_ on IG ✨🧚🏾‍♀️

I’m charging it to the game 😭

I’m the one who thought it would be a good idea to see if it would be better that way just to realize that it would 😭

I just realized 60k words in that this entire book should’ve been written in close third…

The way that a lot of YouTube reviewers are talking about wicked is very funny because you can tell they don’t wanna have to say they liked it lmao

I’m so excited to digest this with you and the others this weekend 😭

James and Fuhad getting lyrically whacked by Kendrick Lamar?! THERE IS NO RECOVERY FOR THEM I FEAR

WAIT SO NOBODY WAS GON TELL ME KENDRICK DROPPED RANDOMLY???

Y’all owe it to us to stock more diverse books from diverse authors. Like why is it the hardest thing in the world to find Romantasy from BIPOC and Queer authors at EVERY B&N?

Those TikTok tables are NEVER diverse 😭

Hi, new folks! I'm an indie author of paranormal romances about Black lesbians healing from their pasts. My current WIP is an erotic horror novel.

I started my publishing journey with short stories and poetry. My debut novel THE FALL THAT SAVED US is a winner of the 2023 Indie Ink Award.

Morning y’all!

How can we even call it Africanfuturism when American niggas “African-ness” is up for debate every damn day? LOL

No! I’m ok.

Close up view of portrait nebula painting

Photo of me wearing a jacket :P It’s painted with a portrait of a woman with nebula hair filled with rainbows

Rainbow, bright
Was initially going to have cloud hair but I turned it into a nebula and rainbows. Painted w acrylics

Respectfully, I personally will keep saying Afrofuturism lmao

Bodyguard Bargain is my first full novel and will be released in 2025!

Here is a first look ✨🧚🏾‍♀️💜

If ACOTAR can’t make it, we’re all fucked, I fear lmao

Maybe them banning ACOTAR will get the girls to wake up?

Thank you!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it 😭
