Season 6, Episode 9: The Reluctant Romantic (ft. Jsin Graham)
from Romance in Colour · host Tati R. and Yaki E
Happy New Year! Yaki and Tati are back from the holiday break. We have a great interview with author Jsin Graham, contemporary fiction and sometimes romance author. We talk about his procss, his catalog, and how poetry led him to a life . About Jsin:Jsin Graham is a communication strategist by day, who pens unapologetically real and tactile fiction centering the Black experience by night. A writer since the age of six, he has created everything from short stories to poems to song lyrics. Graham’s present focus, however, is on longer-form works that provide a broader canvas to paint the detailed narratives he enjoys composing. Since his initial release, Unacceptable Behavior: A Thirteen Story Introduction to Storytelling (2018), he has released a two-book novella series, one holiday-themed novelette, and appeared in Cleis Press’ 2022 anthology, The Big Book of Orgasms, Vol. 2. The contemporary adult fiction and reluctant Black romance author presents his writing as relatable, unpredictable, sexy, and ever-changing. Just like life. In his own words, “Black people are not a monolith, and thus neither is my storytelling.” Regardless of genre, erotica, romance, or something completely different, he writes for two reasons. To tell an enjoyable story and to convince you to come back for more. When not writing, the D.C. area native spends his time reading, with his family, and collaborating with entrepreneurs creatively.
