Write what must not be forgotten — Isabel Allende
Portland, Oregon. Protests, police brutality, white supremacists — and of course the pandemic.
The series Newsroom PDX tells the stories of a student-run newsroom faced with covering it all.
Meet Ryan, the player haunted by a woman who left him.
Cage, a videographer who sees himself as a storyteller but others look to as a hero.
And Emily, uncertain about herself but forced to take charge when the pandemic hits the newsroom.
It's a newsroom full of diverse people who never could color between the lines facing the biggest challenges in a lifetime.
Some sex. Bad language. Lots of politics. This is Portland, after all.
A boxed set of the first three books in this series of suspense novels, Newsroom PDX.
Mayelana nomlobi
A former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys.
I write about religion, and politics. About race and gender. I believe in the journalism axiom: Comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable. To which the labor organizer Mother Jones was supposed to have added: And in general raise hell.
Works for me.
