Eriq La Salle Explains Difficulty Breaking Into Author World Even as a Renowned Actor

[@Luckyduck82180]

I had no idea he was an author. Definitely going to check them, thrillers and crime fiction are my favorite!

[@user-tz4es7yb3c]

MY OBSESSION WITH ERIQ IS REAL!!! NOTHING LIKE A TALENTED BLACK MAN!!! I HOPE TO ADD THIS NEW BOOK TO MY COLLECTION…I NEED IT SIGNED THOUGH!!! 🥰

Received my copy of his new book on release day 2 days ago! Have each book on the trilogy! So good!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Do you have to read them in order?

[@JM-vj7we]

Not an author…. yet but LOVE TM’s frequent exposure of authors.
Watched her interview of S. A. Cosby a couple of months ago. Had never heard of him.
Ended up reading all 4 of his books back to back. Just couldn’t put them down. Loveeeeee his work. ❤
FYI…. If anyone isn’t familiar with Octavia Butler’s work and you love sci-fi…. you have no idea what you’re missing!

[@valencia108]

The way they love to say that "Black People don't read" is ridiculous. I ended up self-publishing for that reason. It's harder, but get your work out and follow your dreams. Definitely, going to support.

[@stellawil]

I also self published a year ago

[@Sheherhis]

We as a people have to stop letting the gatekeepers of these industries take our dreams away. This is not true black people love thrillers and suspense.

[@Mimi-cg2cw]

They don't buy books..I buy clearance go to library or stand in grocery store.

[@joiisler8986]

They say “Black people don’t read Thrillers.” Not the same as “don’t read BOOKS.”
Black people read a Lot of Books (me included). We are not Required to read SciFi or Crime Thrillers. I generally do not. Doesn’t mean it isn’t Good (by all means, please indulge); just not my preferred genre.
Black people’s tastes are as diverse as any other group.

[@matchavez8530]

I know a lot of black people who read just as much as white people. Black women especially but alot of black dudes too. That's stupid

[@mariastewart8810]

It's good to see Eric again and those novels of his look like a good read.

[@roots1458]

Just let your soul glow!

Mr. La Salle looks good
I'll definitely get his books

[@unpopularminion]

I have never read such deep and captivating character and story plots since forever. And never have I read a complete book collection because of the plot (I have a "preference" for sensual spicy books). But the masterful storytelling of Eriq La Salle has caught my intellectual attention IN A FICTION BOOK! I feel like this is an abnormal psychology professor teaching his students by storytelling. I'm so glad I took a chance on La Salle... but I'm upset that I won't find another diamond-level writer. I'm consuming these books like oxygen... and my tank is running low. I am excited to read what comes next❤

[@Mimi-cg2cw]

Im gonna purchase that book..sounds interesting

[@nm985]

Bought my copies 📚❤️👑

[@yolandamorgan6291]

Need to make the book a movie

[@wendysharpe9277]

bought my copy

[@ninabee1333]

He should’ve worn something more professional

[@rooseveltwilliams1073]

Agree. He knew he was coming to Tam's show. And Tamron is always dressed stylish.

[@claudiascott6484]

He's dressed appropriately. Guess he Lluke's the relaxed style.

[@priscillamontgomery1397]

What's that got to do with anything. As you might note these days, most people have acquired a more casual way of dressing be it on talk shows, at work etc. It's the way of the world.

You gotta give these people their flowers while they’re still alive. 🫡🫡🫡👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾✊🏾✊🏾✌🏾
