WOMEN OF COLOR WRITERS
As Women of Color, we are often told that our stories don't matter, won't resonate, or aren't smart enough. There is no shortage of excuses society has made to silence us. As writers, Natalie and Karina forged two different paths in the creative writing world, but they both faced many of the same hurdles. Thanks to their hustle, grit, and refusal to take no for an answer, they've been able to navigate and succeed in their respective fields. But what if they had a mentor? What if they had people they could go to for advice? What if they had someone to call and reach out to? Women of Color Writers Podcast is just that. The mentors we needed with the advice we sought, all in one place so that you can learn from our mistakes and triumphs. With advice, events, and some of your favorite writers to learn from, our podcast is focused on getting information to help you succeed and bring your story to the masses, because your story matters!
