I am going to be honest, I am pretty tired of people complaining that I am focusing on Black and brown authors.

ASL interpreters who work in the arts (concerts, opera, theatre, etc) deserve to be valued as artists too. it takes so much skill to be this good at capturing the FEEL of music beyond just translating the meaning of the text and it’s an invaluable accessibility service

Do me a favor. If you have a Goodreads, go add Cry, Voidbringer to your TBR. If you morally can't, I get it! Everyone else, I am asking because TBR's like this do have an impact on how effectively a book can be pushed to many retailers. Black and brown authors deserve to be on shelves.

Fuck this very much. Mature labels like this is what they do in Russia to queer books. YA books already have age ranges inside or on the back of books. Introducing this kind of labeling in the age of censorship we're in is a very specific, very gross choice and it says a lot about the publishers.

I need y’all to take this anti-DEI movement seriously. You need to make these companies’ wallets hurt and you need to start pouring your money into Black, brown, queer and disabled businesses. If you are a marginalized business owner, drop your link. Here’s mine: leftunreadbooks.binderybooks.com

Octavia Butler couldn’t see the future. She saw what was happening in front of her and, in addition to studying the past, was able to imagine where it would lead. It’s important to tell the truth about her because mythologizing her is a disservice to her legacy.

Me: “I noticed you have an AI cover.” Author: “Yes.” Me: “You also use AI to market your book.” Author: “Yes.” Me: “So the book was also written using AI.” Author: “What?! No! AI books are horrible.” Me: “Yet instead of finding a real artist to design the book cover—“ I hate y’all. So much.
