Being recognized as 1 of 16 🇨🇦 authors to make the ALA’s 2025 Rainbow Book List, which highlights books w/ significant & authentic 2SLGBTQIA+ representation for young readers, is something I don’t take lightly because nothing—no laws, no administration—will ever change that we have always been here.

As the U.S. shifts into a volatile political landscape targeting critical thinking, I want to share an important reminder to the #booksky community: The only way to preserve literature is by collecting physical copies. I know, Kindle users, it sucks—but your digital copy can be deleted any time.

Reminder that you're not helping anyone by watching a vile man celebrate his inauguration tomorrow. If you're free tomorrow, your time would be better spent at a food pantry, or supporting friends in need, or working on art you're passionate about, or doing basically anything else.

This is still my advice: Become a writer anyway. Fuck it, do it, it won't save you, but it's still a beautiful dream to write novels and short stories and poems and mingle with other dreamers and make art and laugh in the face of death. And writing is constant death. Live más.

A story that begins with a corpse on the floor is a mystery. A story that ends with a corpse on the floor is a tragedy. A story that begins with a floor on a corpse is The Wizard of Oz.
