Really don’t understand the “I can separate the art and the artist” crowd, especially when you can see said artist doing awful things in real time.
If a writer would have hated your family and friends, in what world can you separate that from what you’re consuming?

At a time of increasing White Supremacy noise, it's more important than ever to amplify - and read - writers of colour. Great titles here to choose from⬇️

Irish businesses will struggle to compete with Amazon ie, both online and in the high street.
Shop direct with your Irish retailers, who already exist.

I'm actually going to have to invest in a wig to be less easily recognisable, because how am I meant to walk over to the bookshop to get my copy of SUNRISE the literal second I finish a zoom meeting with the buyer for that very shop

I forgot to post here because I’m not sure if they have a presence here but if you’re photosensitive please keep clear of the Booker prize’s content because their international list announcements video has horrendous glitch triggers
I’ve ranted about this for years but the need to be online as an author versus the rampant unregulated use of video announcements in publishing that often use seizure triggers is bad enough but having to beg them to stop is one of the most depressing parts of my job
