I used to get excited seeing an email from the contact form on my website because it meant someone had reached out to say my book really had an impact on them but now I roll my eyes because I know it's likely an AI "book club" scam

If you think Svetlana, Rose, and Elena are queens, you are correct. But I also desperately need you to meet Fabiola from This Is Why They Hate Us, who's kinda like a 17 year-old Afro-Latina version of them.

Like eight years ago, I was teaching a creative writing class at a private tutoring center with primarily Asian students. One of them had just moved to the US, and when I gave everyone an assignment, she was struggling to write more than sentence or two.

This Is Why They Hate Us’s overall e-book ranking on Amazon after going on sale for the first time. This is what authors mean when we say no one/nothing can move the needle like a publisher/retailer.
