Hey you!
Beginning on Tuesday, December 8th, I’m sharing my favorite pieces of creative inspiration from people of color with you in my weekly newsletter: Oh, Write.
Here’s the real deal Holyfield on how Oh, Write came to be:
As a freelance writer and author, I dedicated myself to learning as much as I could about writing craft and creativity during 2020. I searched the internet for the best online resources, books, and blogs out there.
Most of the resources that were recommended to me were from the perspective of white men and women.
I knew that there had to be more diversity than what was being presented to me by algorithms and SEO. I began to do my own research and found a world of amazingly diverse creative inspiration.
I first created Oh, Write in late 2020 as a Medium publication to share my personal writing journey in hopes to inspire others. In this complimentary newsletter, I want to share the media that inspires me to become a better writer and overall creative.
Each issue of Oh, Write will include ten links. The links will include everything from interactive YouTube videos to podcast episodes to news about the wins of POC creative professionals. There will also be an introduction, conclusion, and a weekly writing prompt.
I’ll end each issue with a random song of the week (because I love sharing dope music, duh).
The first issue will be released on Tuesday, December 8th. Each following issue will be released weekly on Tuesdays. I’m so excited to share this new chapter of my writing journey with you all and learn more along the way!
Sign up now so you don’t miss the first issue on Tuesday, December 8th!
Be sure to share this newsletter with any fellow homies, lovers, friends, or creatives.
See you on Tuesday!
Love,
Nia
