All proceeds of that book go to COVID-19 vaccine research.

And I'm the editor-in-chief of M don't have time to write a new publication on Medium.

And we're accepting submissions.

So please send your personal essays there.

Okay, now back to this amazing podcast.

Welcome to Pub Day, Tuesday, where I'm featuring a few episodes of authors who have books coming out today. I hope you enjoy this one.

Paul Mendez is the author of Rainbow Milk, a novel. Paul was born and raised in the black country.

He now lives in London and is studying for an

MA in Black British writing at Goldsmith's University of London. He has been a performing

member of two theatre companies and worked as a voice actor, appearing on audiobooks by

Andrea Levy, Paul Thoreau, and Ben Okre. Most recently recording Ian Wright's A Life in Football

for Hachette Audio.

As a writer, he has contributed to the Times Literary Supplement and the Brixton Review of

Books. Rainbow Milk is his debut novel. We're also celebrating Paul as part of June's Gay Pride Month.

Welcome, Paul. Thank you so much for coming on Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books to discuss Rainbow Milk.

Thank you very much for having me.

I don't think I have ever read as effusive letter from an editor as the one that is in the front of this arc from Margot Schickmantor.
