When a dream you didn’t know you had comes true


Luvvie and I at the Seattle Public Library event.
Luvvie Ajayi recently graced the cover of the weekly newspaper I report for. She’s a self-proclaimed supporter of shenanigans, a side-eye sorceress and social justice warrior. On the internet she’s known as Awesomely Luvvie and I never thought I’d get the chance to interview her. But as the title states, sometimes dreams have a way of finding you before you even know they’re there.

It began a couple months ago with Luvvie posting an event on her Facebook page. She and Lindy West (another talented writer who lives here) were going to be appearing together at Seattle Public Library for a conversation about Luvvie’s debut book, I’m Judging You.
