This book. No words could describe it in a way that would, at all, communicate how it made me feel. But I'll damn well try: Brilliant. Heartbreaking. Political. Thought-provoking. Intriguing. Artistic. Risky. Timely. In other words—it's very, very good. #booksky 💙📚

Just got my first full req rejection. Why did nobody tell me that it could feel good! Nice to know it's not a structure/craft problem, or I'd be worried about having it out with other agents. I hope one has a vision for it in the market, but it's a push to keep working on other projects! #booksky 💙📚

Last month, a dear friend of mine who was intelligent, philosophical, kind-hearted, and a steadfast ally and feminist was murdered by her partner. Vale, A. Please sign this petition. The violence must end. The femicide must end. www.aph.gov.au/e-petitions/... #australia #auspol #clareslaw #feminism

Sooo I need to know: Are my fellow #booksy writers working on multiple manuscripts at once, or do you stick to one at a time? I'm a multi-work writer; I need the variation. I find having time away from work helps with writer's block and gives me plenty of time to let my scenes settle! 💙📚

Also, super late to the party, but I love 'zombie' media. It's never about the perceived threat. #28yearslater exemplifies this: toxic masculinity, false heroes, familial bonds, and generational trauma. Can't believe it took me so long to catch it!

What would someone who can't see the image need to know about it in order to take part in the conversation? What is it about this image that made you choose it? What are the important details someone who could see the image would take away from it?

Friendly reminder that bsky has an option to turn on 'alt text' for all images, and it will not let you post until you have popped that in. Very very helpful if you're forgetful like I am, and a quick and easy path to helping the internet be accessible for all :-) #booksky #💙📚

Looking for Alaska. Funnily enough, I remember reading this and thinking they were all tame for supposed 'rebels'. Just goes to show the adult disconnect with how teenagers behave, as it was deemed 'unsuitable' for the age group. Read #bannedbooks ! #booksky #bookchallenge #💙📚 #politicalbooks 6/?
