Interview with Author Shawn James

                                                                                                                                 

I learned of Shawn James while one day watching YouTuber David Carroll's social commentary. While watching the video, I saw some video thumbnails of Shawn's on the sidebar of the page and decided to check out a few. In the process, I found out that he's a fellow author and writer, and we have similar approaches and agendas when it comes to our vision as literary artists.

Recently, I was able to conduct an Author Q & A session with the author, writer, social critic, and publisher (SJS Direct). He is an author of fiction and non-fiction literature, as well as screenplays, and has been writing for over 20 years. During this span, he has written over a dozen paperbacks and over thirty e-books.

Some of his work includes his Stop Simpin' series, The Myth of  the Strong Black Woman, Why 70% of Black Women are Single, all of which are based on his social commentary that started as blogs, and has transitioned to YouTube videos. Some of his more popular works are his Isis and E'steem series.

On a side note, in case you're wondering, a "simp" is a man who puts himself in a submissive position under a woman in the hopes of winning their love, respect, and acceptance. In the YouTube video posted at the top of the blog, he answers the interview questions I presented to him via email.
