Some exciting personal news: I am pregnant with a baby boy due in June. I'm feeling blessed after a tough few years trying to get here. With that in mind, I wrote an essay dedicated to other women whose paths to motherhood have hit roadblocks. today.com/parents/essay/…
So delighted to wake up & see Thirst for Salt described as “sly and sensual” and “deviously” expansive by @LucyScholes, whose criticism & excellent taste in books I’ve long admired 🙏🌊 @TelegraphBooks @OneworldNews
3 years ago, I decided to make a list about the women I knew in Ghana’s history. The list was pitifully short. So, I wrote a book for the young me who needed to know the women in Ghana’s history especially around the independence period.
I spoke to @ocregister ahead of my events in Southern California this weekend—tomorrow night @skylightbooks in LA & Saturday at Zibby’s in Santa Monica! 💘
"I was really interested in exploring a broader picture of desire, an ambient longing for the life not lived." — @madelaine_lucas talks to @ocregister about her debut novel Thirst for Salt🌊💙 buff.ly/3ZLh7rx

With #M3GAN hitting theaters this week, this is a good time to point out that it was written by a Black woman, Akela Cooper. She's one of the hottest screenwriters in horror right now, having also written Hell Fest, Malignant, and the upcoming The Nun 2.
