Hey y’all today I’m really asking for people to support by commenting and reposting this video. I think I’ve started to understand how to ask for support 😭😭😭 like I use to be so embarrassed to promote myself because that felt so anti poet to me, but babes it’s 2025 and I got to explore all the different ways to reach my audience while keeping my poetry honest. So Not A Monolith: poems and musings of a black woman is available and ready to find people wanting to support womanhood, love, blues and blackness. #poetrytok #poetrybook #bookreccomendations #blackafbooktok #fypシ

trying to beat the algorithm is a bit exhausting. I’ve seen all the vids, I know the tricks but being a business page and promoting poetry is a unique niche to be in. But through it all, I’ve been able to promote my book to a lot of amazing people on this app so I’ll keep showing up to find my audience. All that being said! Not A Monolith is finding a way through the noise and I am so grateful for all the support. Just please remember to engage thoughtfully especially with black business and indie authors 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 #blackbooktok #poetrybook #poetry #supportme #viralvideo #fyp
