We were so beyond lucky to have the glorious, starshine energy human that is THE Jill Tew join us for our 100th EPISODE OF THE PODCAST!!!! 🤩👑✨️ 

We've been wanting to have Jill on the show forever! She truly is a bright spot on here and we're pretty sure her debut novel, THE DIVIDING SKY is going to break the internet come October!!!

We can’t wait for you all to tune in✨️

But first, here’s more about Jill!!

From a young age, Jill Tew was destined for speculative fiction nerddom. She grew up watching Farscape, Hercules, and The Tribe every week, and always had the latest copy of Animorphs tucked in her backpack. Now she writes the kinds of stories she loved as a kid, with characters she wanted to see more of— Black heroines asking big questions, saving the world, and occasionally falling in love along the way.

A recovering business school graduate, Jill enjoys belting showtunes on the way to Target and baking in her spare time. She is also a co-host of⁠ ⁠⁠Afronauts Podcast⁠, which provides writing tips and community for Black aspiring speculative fiction writers. Jill lives in Atlanta with her family. She is represented by Jen Azantian of Azantian Literary Agency.

Her debut novel, THE DIVIDING SKY, comes out October 8, 2024 with Joy Revolution (an imprint of Penguin Random House).
