<aside> 🙌🏽 Real Talk - Writing is A LOT lemme tell you, so give yourself some grace during the process. If you are a new author, a WIP author, or a creative who does zines or looking to break into the publishing industry/business you came to the write place. If you’re a creative who offers services in other realms, I welcome you too because without your services we wouldn’t be where we are today. When we all come together; we build community, power, and unity. I know doing the damn thing can be intimidating, so that’s why I created EPAC to help others who don’t know where to start.

<aside> 👩🏽‍💼 My name is Celeste (SUH-LES-TE), I’m the Author of Besos, and when I started - I had NO idea where to go. I graduated from UC Riverside with a degree in Creative Writing in 2020, so you’d think I know right? Nope! I published my first book on Amazon/KDP Self-Publishing Services after being rejected by traditional publishing houses. Now I’m working on getting on other platforms so it’s solely not on just one. I’m working on book two and trying to present my manuscript to traditional companies again. Do not let rejection scare you, let it be your motivation. Sharing is caring, so here is a list of great people to make connections with or learn from. So let’s get started!
