LELA House
a home for writers invested in the lives and stories of African American women in the US

About LELA House
LELA House is about preserving and sharing the culture and history of African American women and supporting writers who honor and revere our culture. You can make LELA House your home away from home today.
As a person who is very concerned about preserving and sharing history and historical perspectives that have been forgotten, neglected, and are being erased, I started LELA House to support the writers who magnify our stories. I help you navigate and manage your processes and incorporate research in an authentic way that maintains and highlights your unique voice.
