If you are a Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian American, or any other Writer of Color, and you’re looking for your own personal writing coach - to help you write that book; get published; and promote your work - then this is the podcast for you.
Award-winning author, educator, and creative writing coach, Lori L. Tharps ( ”Hair Story,” ”Kinky Gazpacho,” and ”Substitute Me”) knows how hard it is to stay committed to your writing projects - whether you’re working on that debut novel, a gut-wrenching memoir, or an essay about your trip around the world. Writing can be your passion, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. And let’s not forget about the path to getting published and the non-stop journey of promotion. It’s a lot! Especially for BIPoC writers in a publishing industry that is still overwhelmingly centered on whiteness.
On the podcast, Lori is here to serve as your creative-writing coach, and her goal is to help you love your literary life by giving you the tools and motivation to write, publish, and promote your work with purpose and joy. You’ll get inspiring pep talks and literary life lessons based on the lives of our BIPoC literary ancestors. Think Toni Morrison, Sor Juana de la Cruz, Phillis Wheatley e.t.c.
You’ll also hear inspiring interviews with contemporary, best-selling, BIPoC authors who share actionable writing tips and advice to help improve your craft, and better understand the business of writing and the publishing industry.
New episodes of Your BIPoC Writing Coach are released on Mondays.

On episode 70 of the podcast, we’re finishing the Your Famous Author Era season. For the last three months, we’ve talked about how to promote your work, build an author platform, and find the fans who will buy, read and support your work over time. And now it’s time for me to wrap up and for YOU to make a plan to truly lean into Your Famous Author Era.
During the episode, you’ll be reminded of four key takeaways from the season that will help you move forward with a manageable book marketing plan.
You’ll also get a great tip from comedian Josh Johnson, and you’ll hear how I am putting all of these strategies into practice myself.
Stick around to the end of the episode to hear what’s coming next on the Your BIPoC Writing Coach podcast.
