Picking an Idea to Focus On Picking an Idea to Focus On BY KOSOKO JACKSON Kosoko Jackson is an author of young adult and adult stories that star queer Black men. His love for fiction came from writing his first story at age six about a pair of first graders who got eaten by a bear--his parents thought he had a problem. He most definitely does. When not writing, Kosoko is binge-watching cinema (he sees over one hundred movies a year), playing with his new golden retriever puppy, or suffering from existential ennui.
