  again, you know the art history part, you know, kind of like
• 4:02

• 5:34
  whole like my experience is like the job Markeket like looking for jobs and the
• 5:42
  twenty twenty pandemic and yeah, also how I notice how things were like changing
• 5:50
  and like the job market or whatever, and oh yes, and how AI
• 5:57
  is changing things like most I saw some online talking about outdated job career advice.
• 6:06
  You know what, I've heard that a lot. I am a librarian
• 6:11
  specialist my vote called me a librarian, and I hear that our career is
• 6:17
  so outdated, but I tell people, you would be shocked how many people
• 6:23
  actually come to a public library and needs so much help. And I've worked
• 6:30
  with the AI doing content creation. It can help and it can hurt,
• 6:36
  but I always say, we will always have to remember humans. So as
• 6:42
  much as we think AI can, you know it can help, but you
• 6:46
  always need that human, you know what I'm saying, Just like you don't
• 6:51
  need like AI artificial intelligence to do your hair. Yes, yes, saying,
• 6:59

• 14:09
  you guys. So look at that, guys, Look what she has in
• 14:15
  her hand. That's a copy of Tree to Be Be and a copy of
• 14:20
  The Electric Mind of the so Be Collecting. I'm sorry that title was the
• 14:26
  one that got in. So you can you tell me a little bit about
• 14:30
  that one. Well, this one is my debut self published book. It's
• 14:35
  about the arts, blackness and first century issues. Is it was against some
• 14:41
  personification poems in there too, okay, so why poetry? Oh it didn't
• 14:50
  want to write a book one day and some of these poems I put this
• 14:54
  spoken word on is in broke More pub which a kind of sell out the
• 15:00
  book. Enough books, you know, so why not? It's it's a
• 15:03
  long time in making it have to. I had to learn more about like
• 15:09
  self, different types of publishing there, self publishing and be traditional hot hybrid.
• 15:20
  So you think you're living in today, so it would be self publishing
• 15:24
  to be easier. Do you feel that self publishing was the best way for
• 15:31
  you to go because a lot of authors I see get a little bit of
• 15:35
  discourage when it comes down to self publishing. Let's say, how was your
• 15:41
  role with self publishing? Well, that's like a lot I had to learn
• 15:48
  about, like depending on the agitator, let's say KDP or Target or Cobo
• 15:54
  or Lulu, different agitators, they have different guidelines like let's say, like
• 16:03
  like the picture. Let's say it's gonna have a picture of yourself on the
• 16:06
  back of the book. It has to be like a certain when things.
• 16:11
  And also different files for the manuscript like doc, doc, eggs, PDL
• 16:19
  okay, okay. So it seems like it takes a lot of knowledge and
• 16:26
  a lot of patients to do the self publishing. Yes, it has.
• 16:32
  And also the traditional one if you guys send it too like a truth it
• 16:36
  like the traditional like publisher. You don't know if you're gonna get approved or
• 16:41
  not. Oh yes, yes, I I had someone come in my library.
• 16:45
  I want to say about a couple of weeks ago was doing in quarry
• 16:49
  letter And I've heard of those before, and I didn't know people still do
• 16:53
  those, So I totally understand that. So we're gonna have some fine with
• 17:00
  some questions. Okay, what do you like to do when you are not
• 17:07
  writing? Well? Reading? Since I've been doing that since I was two,
• 17:12
  singing, dancing, see Okay, if we had if we came to
• 17:22
  your house and we touch your MP three or we was to look at your
• 17:29
  playlist, can you name me two songs that would be on it? Well?
• 17:33
  Different birds are just Sitting on your Low by Stevie Wonder, Okay,
• 17:41
  different genres of music like R and B, hip hop, gospel, world,
• 17:48
  reggae, classical. Okay, You're like all well rounded, That's what
• 17:56
  I'm talking about. Okay, So here's another another question. What books do
• 18:03
  you enjoy reading? Books like entrepreneur worked from Home books, fictions and times.
• 18:18
  Okay, okay, So it looks like you have that entrepreneurial spirit inside
• 18:22
  of you. Either you're gonna make it do what it do. Huh,
• 18:26
  Yes, I will. And I see entreneurship or as a employment alternatives were
• 18:34
  trying to find a job. This is I work for myself and it's not
• 18:40
  like I'm doing thing illegal. Yes, you have to get creative now,
• 18:44
  and I think that's one of the best things that came out of the pandemic
• 18:48
  was everyone's creativity. Everyone was able to tap inside to see that we all
• 18:55
  got talent. So let's go ahead and make it do what it do and
• 18:59
  put out the talent to work for us especially, it was like a crazy
• 19:03
  year. That year brought back the nineteen eighteen Spanish influenza pandemic, the nineteen
• 19:14
  thirties break depression, and the nineteen sixty's we sport Riots. Yes, that
• 19:22
  was the year of everything happening and all like we sing at the crew,
• 19:27
  we had to stand on God, we stuck. And I remember and I
• 19:32
  was just looking at the news on my phone a couple of days ago,
• 19:36
  and they were saying, COVID is back. I'm like, one more lockdown
• 19:38
  please, No more lockdown please. No. I can't take it, especially
• 19:45
  my sister. She has at my nephew. She didn't hear it work and
• 19:51
  I had to hear. But with the virtual school and also it was too
• 19:56
  much. Paul Park, I hate that all. Wow, Yes, I
• 20:02
  put it like that. I had to homeschool my daughter. I'm still mad
• 20:06
  at her that I did not get a teacher appreciation gift. I think I
• 20:08
  deserved one teacher herself. She talf for twenty years and it's just the film
• 20:19
  has changed from where she first got her teaching degree. It's too much homework.
• 20:26
  I hate do with teachers. Do that they got degrade that? So
• 20:34
  I have some more questions. See are you definite? Like two more?
• 20:38
  Well? Go ahead, okay, So if you couldn't collaborate with any author,
• 20:45
  who would it be? And why? Well, it's I'm kind of
• 20:51
  hard to choose from. It's just so many authors that I like. Well,
• 20:56
  let's well, let's change that question. Let's nay what you like?
