| Introduction | Miracles and blessings! I’m so glad you’re here. If you found your way to this space, I believe it’s for a reason—and I pray something here affirms, ignites, or inspires you as you walk in your own purpose. My name is Shonterrius Lawson-Fountain, but most people know me as The LitLady—not just because I love literacy, but because I help others tap into their genius and realize that literacy is more than reading and writing. It's a lifeline. It’s a force. It’s a way to dismantle injustice, disrupt silence, empower voice, and ignite purpose. I created this blog because I needed a place to chronicle this calling—not just as an educator, but as an eduvist. This work is more than a job for me. It’s a ministry. It’s a divine assignment. And every day I’m reminded that the influence or impact I might have is not about me—it’s about being obedient to the purpose God has placed on my life. |
