After writer Sonhara Eastman married her husband, the questions began to roll in. Friends and family wanted to know when they were planning on having a baby. Why hadn’t they brought a new member into their family yet? Didn't they want to?
What Eastman couldn’t bring herself to tell them was that she and her husband did want child, and badly -- but she was struggling to conceive. In the process of trying to come to terms with the emotional toll her fertility challenges were taking on her, she began writing Black Girl’s Guide to Fertility, the web series she debuted last week on YouTube.
The series follows former romance novelist Ava (Raney Branch), who, after self-publishing a confessional about her attempts to get pregnant, finds herself at the center of a tumultuous cultural discussion.

Lifetime has greenlighted a pair of original movies based on popular novels written nearly two centuries apart. The cable net said today that Pride and Prejudice: Atlanta, a contemporary take on Jane Austen’s early 19th century classic, and an adaptation of Adriana Trigiant’s 2009 book Very Valentine will premiere next year.
Pride and Prejudice: Atlanta features an African-American cast led by Reginald VelJohnson as Reverend Bennet, a pastor of a prominent Southern Baptist church, and his wife, Mrs. Bennet (Jackée Harry), author of a self-help book on how to find the perfect husband. Needless to say, Mrs. Bennet is less than thrilled that all five of their daughters — Lizzie (Tiffany Hines), Jane (Raney Branch), Mary (Brittney Level), Lydia (Reginae Carter) and Kitty (Alexia Bailey) — are still single. When the very eligible Will Darcy (Juan Antonio) arrives in town, Mrs. Bennet sets her sights on the handsome bachelor for daughter Lizzie,...
