The conversation gets heated at the dinner table as one cousin asks us what a free Black writer looks like today. We are stunned by the question mainly because we are writing to set ourselves free...
i don't typically pray, but for some reason mirror affirmations have always felt disingenuous to me. i LOVE this list of prayers, my favorite being, "I pray you write your Black ass off until you set yourself free." i set that energy forward for you, and i accept this as well. i will! let's!
Cousin, I pray you continue to write your Black ass off until you feel the shackles break free from your wrist and ankles. I pray you share your pen with the world and receive everything the Heavens have allowed for you! Cousin, you deserve it all!
I want to print this out to remember every word. I can definitely tell you are exercising your pen. The results are on the page. Thank you for the prayer. It is much needed.
I receive this food for the soul. Thank you.🙏🏽
Food for the soul I love it! See you later! 🥰
