  11. Do you #write for kids? I’m looking add a kids corner to the website and would like to feature #shortstories and #poems for #kids

    If you’re interested, please reach out, or send submissions to [email protected]

    Note: Underground Bookshelf is a free #reading resource and does not pay contributors. It is dedicated to bringing more #diverse #literature to #readers everywhere.

  12. In the summer, I give away #secondhandbooks to anyone who comes to my booth at community events. This is a way for me to support access to #diverse #literature during a renewed culture of #bookbans

    I believe in doing this for free because not everyone can get certain types of books at their #library or purchase #books for themselves.

    But I can't afford to do this by myself. Tabling fees can cost anywhere from $50-$300. Even a dollar would help so much!
