Literary Platform for Author Exposure
Urban Grapevine Magazine We are a literary magazine with a main focus on the minority indie author/writer writing in the Urban Fiction, Hip-Hop Fiction, AA Fiction, AA Contemporary Fiction or Street Lit Fiction genre. We are a staff of authors writing about authors, poets and creative thinkers paying homage to skilled and veteran authors/writers . This is not just a Q&A, article and spotlight author magazine. We focus on the ins and outs of writing, the person behind the pen and the journey not foreseen or told. We gossip, talk industry taboos and support the Urban Lit genre in all forms. We are and cover the unheard and the author with a voice spoken through our pens. We create and expose stories of the untold seen through the eyes of people of color and each story although urban based hums a different tune and tone.
Urban Grapevine Media & Publishing Urban Grapevine Media & Publishing is the #1 readers source to get any and all information on their favorite publisher and author. We are also the platform for author exposure and publishing. Our mission is to provide authors with a one stop shop for marketing material and exposure on social media, blogs as well as internet radio. Although we specialize in internet exposure we are not limited to these sources. We also offer offline promoting such as poster ads, library panel and book discussions, meet and greets and non-traditional book signings. Our services can be one or an integration of both; online and offline.
