We were captivated by her forthcoming Dracula retelling, told through Mina Murray’s lens, not as a passive figure, but as an informed, educated woman of agency. It promises to be a powerful reimagining, and so did the rest of Tonya’s sage insights. Her presence was a balm and a spark, deeply appreciated by Kindra Sowder, Beverly L. Anderson and me. We’ll be delighted to speak with her again.<br /><br />Tonya crafts stories about passionate women and the lovers obsessed with them, exploring the infinite hues of desire, relationship, and the human heart.<br /><br />As an author, actress, and activist, she’s fiercely committed to fair representation in literature and film, championing marginalized voices and creating space for diverse stories to flourish.<br /><br />#tonyatodd #comicslit #femmevoices #StorytellingMatters #bipocwriters #AroundTheTableAOTR
