After listening to the @printrunpodcast.bsky.social I feel compelled to say this in response. As a querying writer, I was told by another writer to not post anything political. But the problem is, I’m a queer Iranian American woman. My whole existence is political.

Also, new on Patreon: How to approach the sorts of sensitive questions on "the call" with agents that we just discussed on the main episode of the show. www.patreon.com/posts/miniso...

This week's episode is about how to approach publishing relationships--especially those meant to protect you and support you, like that with an agent--amidst a culture that is backsliding into fascism. Are they equipped to help you? Are you equipped to make sure you're getting what you need?

NEW EPISODE What We Owe Each Other The culture is shifting, and not for the better. How do we make sure that the people we are in publishing relationships with really have our backs, and how can we make sure to have theirs? on.soundcloud.com/AdAgq81rMJsY...

We will be donating 100% of the money received to the Trans Youth Equality Foundation, specifically their TYEF Emergency Trans Youth Fund. The number was just under $1900; we are waiting for PayPal to fully process it and when it does we will post the donation screenshot.

The new Query Show is up! Really fun episode--talked a lot about how to place the weight in your plot arcs within the condensed space of a query. Plus there were two literary queries so I was in my element finally www.patreon.com/posts/februa...

Print Run is a beacon of hope and truth in the publishing world—so glad to have people like Laura and Erik who maintain their integrity and humanity through it all.

Today is Manuscript Wish List Day, when you'll get to see what lots of agents are looking for in their submissions. The industry honestly takes it for granted; make sure to thank the good folks at @manuscriptacademy.bsky.social and @manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social for this incredible resource.

For new folks: Office Hours are a totally open-ended hourlong zoom call in which you can long on and ask basically whatever you want, no matter how specific. The idea is to get you the answers you need for your specific situation, because publishing advice is otherwise always pretty general
