Happy Birthday to Us!
It has been one year; yes, one year since we opened up the doors of opportunity at Brown Girls Books.
And it has been some year! Through the ups and the downs, the good and not so good we have,
? Published 21 books of all genres
? Secured a movie deal for ten of our books
? Received an NAACP Image Award nomination for Momma Gone, by Nina Foxx
? Received three African American Literary Awards nominations for Pink & Patent Leather, by Candy Jackson, Easier Said than Done, by Nikki Woods, and Momma Gone, by Nina Foxx
? Easier Said than Done made the Power List (the premiere best seller’s list for African American books) and was the top selling book on AALBC.com for 2014
And all of this happened because of YOU!
Because of you, Brown Girls Books provided publishing opportunities for so many new and up and coming writers who may not have received a chance in these tumultuous publishing times. Because of you, Brown Girls Books have been read by thousands of readers. And because of you, Brown Girls Books is on the verge of being one of the top independent publishing houses in the country.
So, thank you! A million times — thank you! And to show our appreciation, every Brown Girls Book is on sale for $2.99 for a limited time! Just click on www.browngirlsbooks.com and enjoy the savings!
Enjoy!
