I’m thrilled to announce that my new book, “Amizdel”, is now available for preorder from the fine folks at @petespress 🙌

Featuring original artwork by @christina_rauh_fishburne, “Amizdel” is a collection of prose pieces inspired by memories, people, and experiences—spanning from childhood to the present—that have moved me to be increasingly more aware of my surroundings.

Swipe over to read generous reviews from @skyeinthecity and @katconyc 🙏🙏 and read two pieces from the book that have been published in advance of the 10/20 release date🙌

Order link in bio!

The first reading event following publication will be 10/27 with the wonderful @thepalacereadingseries ❤️

@aawicatlofficial is honored to welcome B. Monét as a keynote panelist for our Politics of Black Women in Film panel. B. Monét is an award-winning filmmaker, visionary storyteller, and passionate advocate for elevating women’s voices—particularly Black women—in media. Her work spans film, television, and branded content, with a directorial voice that is poetic, bold, and deeply rooted in truth. She made history as the first winner of the Queen Collective, a short film initiative founded by Queen Latifah in partnership with Procter & Gamble and Tribeca Studios, which led to the debut of her film Ballet After Dark on BET and the Tribeca Film Festival stage. B. Monét’s storytelling has garnered acclaim for centering themes of healing, identity, and resilience, and her work has been featured by HBO, NBC, Essence, and more. In addition to her creative endeavors, she is a mentor and speaker, committed to shifting industry paradigms and increasing representation both behind and in front of the camera. With her unique blend of artistry and activism, B. Monét continues to inspire and uplift the next generation of Black women filmmakers.🩷

Additionally, I have tagged some amazing Black women directors who are being highlighted through @i_d’s Black Debutantes program in the UK. I would greatly appreciate your taking the time to watch their films. 🎬As a Black woman director, I’m part of the lexicon of the Black women directors who came before me. Let us continue to pay homage to them and their work. 🎬🙏🏾🫶🏾

See you this weekend, honeybees! 🐝🖤🌟💛⭐️💥

This month in my full moon Substack, I post some notes from the road and consider ingredients for a great book event! Thanks to everyone who has helped me do an event, whether by joining me, hosting me, attending, buying books, or amplifying on social media!!! It truly takes a village.

Last two stops for this fall are John Jay College Library next Thurs 10/24 and @loanerjacket7’s wonderful bookstore in High Falls, @blueheronbooksny.

See some of you there soon and thanks so much to everyone for the support! 😍😍😍🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽😎😎🚗🚗
