85: We're BACK!

Welcome to episode 85 of the Bookcast, my platform for sharing short fiction and updates on what I'm reading and writing. I'm DL White, author of contemporary  romantic fiction novels that center Black love and relationships. I'm also a big fan of books, so we usually begin with the book report, then we talk about writing and topics of the day. I’m currently editing The Pearl, a Black Diamond romance.CHAPTERS:0:28 Introduction and Welcome Back5:46 The Book Report: Reading Challenge Update7:30 Recent Reads: Reviews and Recommendations17:53 Editing Update: First Pass Pages18:03  Conclusion and Call to ActionThe Bookcast is a production of Books by DL White, written, edited, produced and supported by ME.
