Season 7, Episode 10: The Write Drama (ft. Terry Ley)

Author: Tati R. and Yaki E January 30, 2026 Duration: 1:02:06

Hey you all! The podcast is back this week and we are introducing you all to one of our newest co-hosts, author Terri Ley! Terri is a talented author and creative in KY who loves all things romance.
About Terri:I come from quiet noise, fans beating generating wind on sticky summer days. Notes of magnolias, roses, tulips, lilies scent the air with the aromas of good home cooking settling into my belly. Thick heavy scratch blankets scented with nicotine and a nap so readily conjured for a peaceful rest.

There’s a particular comfort in losing yourself in a romantic story, whether it’s on screen or on the page. Romance in Colour is that feeling turned into conversation, hosted by real-life friends Tati R. and Yaki E. Tati, a romance author, and Dr. Yaki, a psychologist, share more than just a friendship-they share a deep, abiding love for romance narratives and a specific lens shaped by their experiences. This podcast lives in the space where their fandom meets thoughtful discussion, breaking down everything from beloved TV movies to trending romance novels. They aren’t just reviewing plots; they’re diving into the emotional mechanics, the cultural touchstones, and the specific joys of seeing stories through a Black Xennial perspective. You’ll hear the easy rapport of two friends who get why a certain trope works or why a character’s journey resonates, blending professional insight with genuine fan enthusiasm. It’s for anyone who believes a perfect afternoon involves a great love story and wants to unpack it with some smart, funny people. Tune in to hear them quench that mutual thirst for romance and hand you the glass, episode by episode.
