I write.
I write Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, Action and Adventure stories with people of Afrikan descent as the heroes.
Y’all know this.
But what you might not know is I love Science Fiction and Fantasy art and animation and I have been blessed to work with some great artists on the books I have authored and / or edited.
Below is a list of just a few of the Blacktastic artists I will soon work with – again, or for the first time – on a book cover, a graphic novel or an animation project. Enjoy!

Stanley “Standingo73” Weaver
