GaptoothDiva chops it up with Lez, Author and Publisher of “A Lesson Learned”, a life-like illustration of a young woman from Richmond, making hard life decisions on quest to support herself and her child. GaptoothDiva picks her brain on the self-publishing process and ask how new writers embark on the process of putting their first book on the market without the need to submit to small and large publishing houses. Lez is a native of New Jersey who currently resides in Richmond, Virginia. Her life experiences and observations of others have provided her with the realization that drama is worth learning from. “A Lesson Learned” is Lez’s self-published debut novel, which is a compilation of her own personal lessons creatively intertwined with those of others that ultimately created a page-turning depiction of life’s harsh realities, complex conclusions, and enough humor to make you laugh. Lez’s inspirations include the works of others such as J. California Cooper and Sista Souljah. She is very compassionate about reaching out to women who may have struggles in their lives that can be turned into positive experiences. As a result of her outreach, she founded a women’s networking and social group named Shades of Mahogany in Richmond, Virginia. This group provides an atmosphere of trust, community service and positive energy. The proud mother of two continues to work on many novels to come. Her writings are an easy read and are bound to include at least one character that is walking in your shoes. Be on the lookout for her next novel that will have you turning from cover to cover.
