Writer: TheRealUrban

There are sooooo many Black books and so little getting real notice. I'm trying to bring attention to some lesser seen writers on this app. One of my first followers was TheRealUrban.

Her books are Blackity-Black and tell real good stories. Whenever Black writers do have some success here, it's never stories like this that deserve more reads. My opinion is a good story is a good story no matter where it is set.
