Celebrate Black History Month Online: State of Black SciFi 2012 Coming Soon!

I'm so excited to participate in a discussion about the State of Black speculative fiction with a few of my writer friends.  During the next seven weeks, we'll participate in a blog hop or blog tour where we all give our opinions on issues surrounding this interesting topic.  I'm hoping that this online event will become something that we do each year during Black History Month.

What's neat is that at the end of the discussion, we'll have giveaways, prizes, and fun stuff for those readers who participate in the dicussion. You can participate via twitter using the #blackscifi2012 hashtag or by leaving comments on each one of our blogs.  Get ready for this awesome online Black History Month event. We'll kick-off the discussion next week on the ML King Holiday. BTW, if you're an author and would like to participate, drop me an email. Here are some of the authors.
