Topics include the troubles of historical fiction. Slavery in the 1800s and today. Freedom. The vulnerability of writing. A romance writer’s high standards. Fighting against a whitewashed genre. The vulnerability of writing. Dating apps. Justice in fiction.

This is the last episode of this season! I hope to be back in September and if you’d like to hear from someone in particular, email me at orangeinkpodcast@gmail.com.
If you have a sec, here’s a brief feedback questionnaire on this season. Let me know any and all thoughts. Like, how was your breakfast? Have any pets? Lol ;)
