Our thoughts for your weekend.

Read with passion and intention, it’s #librarysh

Read with passion and intention, it’s #libraryshelfieday ! Here’s a pic of a few of the books in our library what’s on your library shelf?
Is there a book on there you have been really excited to read but just haven’t got to it yet? Maybe this is the year for that book.

Why not explore a genre or area you’ve never tackled before but been a little curious about?

Bare essentials. Books, blanket, tings ...

The first month of the year is almost over. How’s your reading going? Did you make goals or are you just taking it one book at a time?

Black hair is such a defining element of who we ar

Black hair is such a defining element of who we are. It’s also been a space of much trauma. For many of us, it’s been a journey to loving out electric, bombastic, kinetic, fantastic, twirly, whirly, curly, fuzzy, snappy, nappy, wavy, crazy, boonoonoonous hair!

We all have moments of procrastination ... but a pause isn’t a full stop. And sometimes what you need is an inspiring read to kickstart your drive. What kind of books motivate you?

Inspire. Dream. 📚 ... Though their world is now largely virtual, we hold the same dreams for our children that they might reach for the stars.
Throw back to that awesome day we got to spend with the great folks at @jlsempoweringjamaica in Mandeville.

We’re starting a whole new year! Almost can’t

We’re starting a whole new year! Almost can’t believe that last one is over, especially at it seems it took us about 10 years to get through. But we are definitely counting the blessings that we have accrued.
.
First up, publishing #AMillionAunties and #OffTrack by two amazing writers. Our publishing calendar was significantly pared down but we are supremely proud to have brought these two into the world. @aleciamck and @_tamikagibson are beautiful women in their writing, their spirit (and yeah physically too). If you have not yet met their work, you really should.
.
This year of isolation was also a great year of connections because the online literary community bloomed. We are looking forward to a lot more of this next year, but we were so happy to connect with @rebelwomenlit @bklyncbeanlitfest @bocaslitfest @rasheenonpurpose
.
The best thing about our paying more attention to Instagram this year has been finding a community of people so dedicated to talking about (and often putting them money behind) Caribbean books. So, can’t go forward without absolute kudos @ifthisisparadise @miss.bibliofancy @amelia_beee @decentred_lit_ja
.
There are so many out there who showed love to our publications this year and we full 💯 appreci-love this.
.
And while I often try to separate my business from my personal life, I would be nothing without my friends and family who have shown support in so many ways @camysav @wordyfriend @danasoleil89 @alikklesliceofheaven @staysean.daley
.
Finally to the stores who carry us allowing our readers to get our books to their shelves- a big thank you @kozykornerbooksja @kingstonbookshopltd @fontana_pharmacy (Mandeville and Waterloo) @thingsjamaicanstores @paperbasedbookshop @thebookemporiumltd
.
Looking forward to what 2021 may bring with open heart, open mind and an open book.
One love
