✍What’s YourStory? (WYS?)What’s Your Story?: Tanya Michelle: The Perfect Opportunity“WYS?” is a guest post feature on BCBA’s Our Stories Matter blog. It’s for indie/self-published authors.Read anexcerpt:I have been reading and writing since the age of four, and I have always dreamed of writing children’s books. I became inspired to write a book after seeing children of color being misrepresented in text. I wanted to create something not only to represent my students that I was teaching at the time but also to represent my son as well. The election of the first Black president was the perfect opportunity finally to put my dream into action. This dream finally became a reality in 2010 when I released my first book, The President Looks Like Me. This book has been enjoyed worldwide and has been featured in numerous magazines, read by countless celebrities, and was even a big hit at the 2013 Presidential Inauguration! In addition to writing, I enjoy promoting the power and importance of education.Click HERE to continue reading Tanya Michelle’s story.The President Looks Like MeTanya MichelleBrandon FallBee’s Ink PublishingNovember 15, 201125 PagesFollow/Subscribe: Twitter | Instagram | Facebook | NewsletterIf you believe BCBA provides a valuable service, please take a few minutes to donate here or via Cash App ($BCBooksA) and support our mission to promote awareness of children’s and young adult literature by Black authors.
