This is the story of my first book Fashion Killa: How Hip-Hop Revolutionized High Fashion. Since October is National Book Month, what better time than to share the journey of how an article in XXL became a critically-acclaimed nonfiction book on hip hop and luxury fashion. Let's discuss the process that includes finding the right idea for your book, writing the book proposal, getting an agent and landing a book deal before finally writing and releasing the book.
Fashion Killa is the first anthology of hip hop fashion spanning 50 years and includes interviews, stories and photos of everyone from rappers and designers to stylists including: Dapper Dan, Tommy Hilfiger, Tupac Shakur, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Pharrell Williams, Aaliyah, Lil Kim and Nicki Minaj.
I'm planning a full series on book writing for my fellow writers, journalists and authors, so stay tuned.
In the meantime, make sure to buy Fashion Killa. It's a great gift idea for hip hop fans, people who love books or something to make your coffee table look more stylish. Links below!
If you have the book, tag me on social media @SowmyaK.
