    If you would have told me while querying my first novel that I’d publish all these books, I don’t think I'd have believed you. It’s amazing to see how far the little ideas in my head have come and that all of you have followed the journeys of Starr, Maverick, Brianna, and Nic 1/2

    Every day that Breonna Taylor's killers walk free, it becomes more and more apparent that cops can walk into your home, kill you, and get away with it. If y'all aren't angry about that, I don't know what to say.

    Y'all dumped your trauma on that baby. You better wish him a happy birthday

    To the Black kids waiting and watching: You matter. You are loved. You have worth. You have value. Don’t let ANYTHING tell you otherwise.

    For over 10 days now, around half the residents of Jackson, Mississippi have not had running water. And nobody is talking about it on a national scale. I am begging the national media to please pay attention. There is a crisis happening in Jackson.

    Pay attention to how people treat you after you tell them, "No."

    I'm a black girl from Mississippi who sometimes didn't have lights. Sometimes my family was on welfare. I'm straight from the hood, no ifs, ands, or buts about it. The trailer just dropped for a movie based on a book I wrote. Nothing is impossible. With that, bye Twitter 😂

    After my mom's childhood best friend left Mississippi as a kid, they lost touch. Mom named me after her and hoped that one day she would find her & reconnect. Today, I found Angela's number & called. She's been searching for my mom too. We're surprising Mom later on Facetime ☺️

    Today I paid off the mortgage on my house in Mississippi and gave it to my mom. It's hers now and paid for. She cried buckets. Thank you all for making that possible.

    If there was a way to give a "best supporting cast" award to multiple people at once, it should go to the kids on Abbott 😂
