A whole heap of blackness (pt. III of IV): N'Sight.

From another article in this week's "N'Digo: The Magapaper for the Urbane" that was also unfortunately not put online, this one about a successful black publisher of poetry and literature:

Although it struggles to survive, the moderate success of TWP's authors has kept the company at the head of the pack. The "Covenant," Madhubuti says, has put the company in a position to publish two or three books a week. But he shuns publishing what he labels 'booty call literature,' the salacious paper back titles that mostly are self-published but are among the hottest sellers.

Never heard of that genre before. I wonder where I can get it.
