This week on Black and Published, Nikesha speaks with Denene Millner the New York Times Bestselling author of the novel, One Blood. In addition to her long literary career including stints as a celebrity ghostwriter for titles including Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man from Steve Harve and Around the Way Girl from Taraji P. Henson just to name a few. Denene got her start as a beat reporter for the Associated Press and the New York Daily News. She now runs her own imprint in partnership with Simon & Schuster.

In our conversation, Denene discusses why she never felt stifled in her journalism career choosing to primarily cover Black people. The reason she says it took writing 11 books before she felt confident in her voice as an author. Plus how the novel, One Blood, is a way for her to rewrite her own rules for love, for life and getting free, with wisdom, experience and grace.
