Fast Five with Desiree Batiste

At Not a Pipe Publishing, we’re always looking for new ways to help readers and writers connect. That’s what our show, Writers Not Writing, is all about, and Fast Five is another way to help you, our beloved readers, get to know your next favorite author. (If you’re an author and would like to be featured on Fast Five, go HERE.)

Today’s Fast Five guest is author Desiree Batiste!

1. Tell us a little about yourself.

I am a native of Arizona, who self-published two poetic journeys through different stages of my life as a child abuse and domestic violence survivor.

2. What do you have out there now that readers can enjoy?

My two books already published are: "The Shaping of a Diamond" and "Shimmering Brilliance."

3. When you are procrastinating from your writing, what's something you've been into lately that's keeping you from your work?

I have been binge-watching horror movies with my husband and taking care of our six cats.

4. How have you been using your voice to make the world a better place?

I have been writing and sharing poetry publically since 1995, but I have been published since December of 2022.

5. Where can readers find you and your work?
