In celebration of Black History Month, Chrishella Roche has been featuring local Black authors at her Vibez Creative Arts Space throughout the month of February.
Her “It’s Lit! Author Meet & Greet” series has included an author showcase night that featured authors from various genres and events at which individual authors’ hosts their events.
On Thursday, February 27th Clarene Mitchell will host her event. She is the author of “Shine Online with LinkedIn.” Mitchell describes the book as a hybrid between a novel and a tech book.
Her goal with the book is to help others understand LinkedIn more and empower them to effectively use the platform.
