This episode has been in the vault for a long time, but it's finally time for you to hear my talk with Karla Medrano!
Last fall, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Karla Medrano. By trade, Karla is a Nurse who spends her days and nights saving lives. But she's passionate about many things, including creative storytelling. After seeing the Black Panther film in 2018, Karla decided she had to stop keeping her creativity on the backburner and throw her hat into the ring. Thus, Luna: The Queen of Mahru was born.
Since the breakout success of Luna, Karla has made it a constant practice to do all the things she feels called to. Together with Dr. Ebony Toussaint, she hosts the Ororo Comics Podcast, the show where health meets culture and culture meets comics. Last year, she headed up Digital Marketing efforts for the Epiphany Engine Kickstarter, earning her the title "Misty Knight of Marketing" from previous guest Joseph Illidge. She later packaged her knowledge and experience for a Comic Book Marketing course for creators.
Check out this interview, finally being released from the vault, and be sure to follow Karla on Instagram to keep up with her day to day!
