This weekend I volunteered at my old internship. Every year they host a big awards ceremony that celebrates and honors Black writers. This year they honored Ms. Sonia Sanchez with the North Star award. Little ole' me got to check her in and escort her off the stage. For me, and inspiring book acquisitionist and English degree holder, I felt like I just touched a rockstar! Little and bold, she stood on stage and dedicated her award to OUR children, not THOSE children. It was wonderful! To be in a place with brilliant Black people who love literature!!!
I digress.

Hi,
I'm the Executive Producer of a new reality show, "The Black Woman's Guide to Marrying Well" and I was wondering if you'd like a posting to our casting website at http://blackwomandsguide.blogspot.com. We will be casting people in Baltimore, Atlanta, Ft. Lauderdale and other places. The show will debut in the fall 2008 season. It's a great show. Please check us out and put a link on your blog. Thanks so much!
Kassandra Vaughn, CEO Clean Slate Films
P.S. Keep writing!
