“You’re always telling people to support indie bookstores over billionaires.”

Yeah, it’s called having a consistent brand voice and a conscience.

I LOVE @scrivenerapp.bsky.social. @kirkville.com & I did this podcast at midnight (listen to find out why) and not only do we talk about writing, but the marketing of kids' books vs adult books, the creative process + more.

Update: this session’s school library book ban bill- SB 13 - has been added to the calendar for Monday. 😩

Keep calling your reps to urge them to run out the clock on this horrible bill.

If this passes, we will not be able to undo the harm done to TX public school libraries.
