I haven’t been on here much because social media in the hellscape that is late stage capitalism veering into fascism is — SURPRISE! — terrible for my mental health, but I wanted to share that my books are open for bookish social media marketing strategy consults, and copy/line editing.

I’ve been laughing about Silver Elite discourse and theories about trad pub experimenting with “authorless campaigns” to see if they can use AI to create “original” IP.
LOLOL.
Please. Your publicist or editor has definitely already sat through a “lunch & learn” on the ethics of AI in publishing.

This is a question for #knitsky: I am about 2 weeks into a bout of De Quervain tenosynovitis (read as: thumb to wrist tendon injury). I was knitting socks on 2.25mm dpns and now it’s too small to knit comfortably.
Is a project on say, 4.0mm or 6.5mm needles doable or should I just rest entirely?

All I’m saying is that I’ve never read a bad Rebekah Weatherspoon, but I have frequently found myself screaming and buying copies for friends and family because I’m tired of having to snoop through their stuff to get the copies they borrowed from me back…
if i could sell 320 more copies of A Man for Mrs. Claus in the next 48 hours that would be pretty cool. tell your friends.

In 2025, I would like to work with more romance authors on editing and marketing strategies.
If you’re looking for help, email me at Brittney (at) litandknits (dot) com to set up a time to chat.

It’s mostly white people who talk about echo chambers. Maybe you need the internet to meet people with different ideas but the rest of us do not. We know what the “other side” thinks because we deal with it every day! Everywhere! We’re fine. Carry on. Happy Saturday!

I asked for cozy Black romance recommendations on Threads, and I had over 70 author names dropped into my mentions over the last 24 hours. At least half of those I had never read before!
I’m working on a list of those new-to-me authors, but in the meantime, here are ones I have read and enjoyed!

We’re taking the baby (oops, my bad, The Big Girl Who Is Five Years Old And A Grownup) to the movie theater for the first time to see Trolls: Band Together.
May she become obsessed with this soundtrack so that I can slip some *NSYNC and BSB into her Spotify playlist…
