  • Fighting Racism
    by Scott Woods inOur Community on2018-10-25

    I had a boss who was racist. Not an outright bigot, of course; her toolbox was more subtle than most. We bumped heads a lot over inconsequential things. She frequently couldn’t keep my name out her mouth. Lot of gaslighting. You know…2018 style. I tried a lot of ways to combat or navigate her issues.

Who We Are: The co-creators of The S-H-E-M-A Gurls are about to make things happen!!! It started with a vision shared by these two sister friends, one a published author of "The Balcony View - Introduction of the Lovers" and creator of Steamy Trails Promotions, Kat Gurl and the other a soon to be published author of the book "And Yet...It Was Forbidden" and co-creator of The Spirited Divas, Nita Bee. 

After much talk and the desire to help others get their work out there without all the hassle and misunderstandings that most new authors have when getting published...the two decided to stop talking and start doing by making their vision a reality. Using the Steamy Trails name they've come together to create a brand new publishing company called - STEAMY TRAILS PUBLISHING. Within their vision is the strong desire not to only help others get published at reasonable workable rates but to help young talented writers who lack the funds needed, get their work published, as well. They've also created a sponsorship program for high school and college students.
