As you may have heard me going on about, the book drive we did for the Edith Garland Dupré Library (University of Louisiana at Lafayette) was a great success! Here are the first pics of the special Women in Horror book section created just for our books! I’m told this is only half of the display and more pics will be on the way, but we can already see what a glorious start we’re off to!
Libraries are one of the last strongholds for free speech in America, and every single one of you who contributed helped continue to uphold and fight for this right. Thanks to all of you who sent in books, offered to donate money, and helped in any way. Most special thanks to the Librarian, Andrea Broussard, who inspired this book drive and created the WIH Section. Also many thanks to the team at the Edith Garland Dupré Library and the University. And as always, thanks to my ride or die, Lydia Prime, for all her help and hard work!
(Kandisha Press is not affiliated with the library of the university, but Andrea is AWESOME!)
Feel free to share the pics on social media. And don’t forget to tag @kandishapress and @ulduprelibrary
