I write the truth.

I write stories about smart women who use their wit and grit to build amazing lives for themselves and their communities.

They know how to make something out of nothing.

I write stories to offset the ridiculous stereotypes of Black - and white - people in the 1915 film “The Birth of a Nation”.

I have written, self-funded, directed and edited four scripted podcasts/audio dramas. My first series, Harlem Queen is highly acclaimed and listened to all over the world.

I am a Bundles Scholar at Columbia University, selected for AIR’s New Voices ‘24 and Tribeca Festival. I am a ten time LMCC grantee.

I just recently learned that I am the great-great granddaughter of a Civil War Veteran who was a freeman in 1850. That’s one of the reasons why I keep my maiden name - Washington.
