WATERMELON SUMMERS is a Southern Afrofuturist coming-of-age novel by MR. TOMONOSHi—a lyrical, ceremonial autoethnography blending fiction, memory, and Black theological imagination. Framed as a field journal, it explores family, ritual, and emotional inheritance through the eyes of Coltrane Johnson III. A sacred record of Black life in the South. A spiritual archive disguised as a novel.
Slices of Black American Life is a raw, electrifying yet polished articulation of Black America—its past, present, and future woven through Blaxploitation-inspired poetry and storytelling with cinematic flair.
