Things are getting steamy this week - we have the wonderful Mel Gill (@thesteamboxco) on the show! Mel is the founder of Steamy Lit and creator of The Steam Box, a new book subscription box service that highlights women romance authors of color and non-binary/genderqueer authors and encourages embracing sexuality and self-love (so obviously right up the alley of Between The Pages!). Mel talks to Caitlin about creating The Steam Box, what's included, how she's working to showcase authors of color and LGBTQ+ authors, and destigmatizing romance and self-love.
