Born in the Sun Belt (Inglewood, CA) but raised in the Bible Belt (Winston-Salem, NC), Courtney Gaillard is a former writer turned copy editor based in Charlotte, NC. People have been inquiring about her race her entire life. This blog is dedicated to those encounters and experiences. She’s the youngest of four children and has been correcting their grammar since she learned to talk. She plans to get around to writing a novel. One day. Soon. Really.
