Shakir Rashaan’s New BDSM Series
African-American author Shakir Rashaan breaks into the literary world with his debut novel which encompasses the eroticism of BDSM and publishing it on Lulu.com, the online marketplace for digital content. Mr. Rashaan took the opportunity to write his 250-plus page erotica novel Chronicles of the Nubian Underworld: The Awakening while using his downtime between work and his college studies at the University of Phoenix-Online. The novel focuses on a rather taboo subject: BDSM (Bondage/Discipline/Sadism/Masochism) from the point of view of an African-American couple that is active within the BDSM community in Atlanta, Georgia.
Mr. Rashaan says “A few years ago when I first started writing this type of material, I probably would have struggled to find a publisher to enable me to create this book. Thanks to Lulu, I am now proud to have helped create Kemi-Ka Publishing, LLC and to become one of its first published authors.”
Although the book is entitled Chronicles of the Nubian Underworld: The Awakening, giving it an obvious afro-centric feel, there are characters within this burgeoning series that are of other races as well.
