What Book Publishers Do and Look For: Interview w/ Dakota Rayne & Carlin Thomas | Building Community

Dakota Rayne and Carlin Thomas go into the detailed process of submitting a book to their publishing company, Inked In Gray. Elevating queer voices in publishing, allowing a platform for stories to be told, and turning their mission into action to help others. It's all about working, growing, and rising together, to keep the creative flow growing as we develop "The Write Mindset." Bio of company and mission Inked in Gray Press is a small queer owned company that seeks to give marginalized creators a platform. Our mission is to provide a platform for stories that explore those aspects of our humanity and give a voice to divergent and underrepresented authors. We publish speculative and contemporary fiction, and have a wide array of empowerment-focused merch that promotes self-care and equality. Dakota Rayne's Bio Dakota has a passion for helping others and telling stories. After over fifteen years in social work, Kota decided to combine their passions into Inked in Gray, the indie press that seeks stories that need to be heard. Kota is working on works of their own – blending life experiences with the surreal in The Lessons We Keep, and musings about mental health, survival, and overcoming darkness. Kota is also CFO of the amazing nonprofit known as WriteHive [https://writehive.org/]. You can find Kota causing chaos on Twitter [  / inkedingray  ] and Medium [  / inkedingray  ]. Carlin Thomas's Bio Carlin is a non-binary and neurodivergent writer, designer, and illustrator living in Phoenix, Arizona with their wife and fuzzy family. With experience in everything from novels and plays to marketing and social media, their experience bleeds into every part of their life. Every new project, no matter what it may be, becomes an opportunity for storytelling. Bringing tales to life, be it through visual, verbal, or literary media, is what nourishes their soul.

Bellezza was born in 1978 on Long Island, New York, and is a successful consultant in the entertainment industry. He is known for his speaking engagements, mentoring, and unwavering desire to help others with their creative endeavors and succeed in their careers. He is a student of human behavior and the process of becoming successful. For more than twenty years, he has been an important figure in his field, opening doors and giving people places to learn. His journey began in the 90’s as an illustrator. From there, his career turned into a ten-year venture with his band TENEbRAE. Since 2007, he has developed multiple paths in his industry: from his music project, Altayon, to performing stand-up comedy, acting, and his career as a writer/author. As a writing consultant, he helps write, outline, and brainstorm story development and narrative fluidity. As a script doctor and story consultant, he works on scripts, books, and novels. His mission to help educate people has led him to open up a nonprofit venture, Team Rise Together, with the motto of "work together, grow together, and rise together." This mission gives entertainers the chance to work together with other people who share their interests. As a team, these people will help each other improve their skills, learn about the industry, and understand their craft in the field so that they can move up in their careers together. His debut poetry book, "SHE," was published in 2018 and is holding strong with 4.8 stars on Amazon. Currently, his next two books are in progress. His self-help book is in the hands of fantastic alpha readers, and his first three book fantasy series, "The Maven Wars," is in the outlining stage. In addition to writing, Thomas currently has a number of TV and film scripts in the works at BBR Productions. These projects will be made as part of the Team Rise Together mission. #TheWriteMindset, #InkedInGray, #WhatDoBookPublishersDo
