Mystery question for the day: who will be the first to invent AI that reads a query and matches it to the perfect agent? #authors #booksky

Big win for readers and librarians! A judge struck down an Arkansas law that could have jailed librarians for offering books deemed “harmful.” Libraries should inspire curiosity, not fear. This ruling protects everyone’s right to read freely! #BookSky 💙📚 #TLSky

A federal judge has temporarily blocked Arkansas from enforcing a law that would have allowed criminal charges against librarians and booksellers for providing “harmful” materials to minors.

@herringali.bsky.social Hi Ali,
Would it be unethical/inappropriate to submit to Spencer Hill if I was previously repped by another agent? I'm getting my submissions ready for the New Year and just wondered, since SpencerHill is a great agency.

I'm reading, IF THE CREEK DON'T RISE by Leah Weiss. OMG, the voice. I was reading something else, and this was recommended on a feed. I checked the sample and was so wrapped up in the story I forgot the other book. So far, highly recommended. Please don't tell me how it ends!

Shameless question time:

Authors: What do you love about your voice?

This quote from the musician Laura Marling beautifully sums up novel writing: "In songwriting, if you can get out of the way of what you think the song should be, what it really is will appear.” Getting out of the way, and trusting the story – that is a hard lesson to learn.

Books ignite creativity, fuel dreams, and teach us to imagine beyond what we see. This Well Said Wednesday reminds us how stories shape not just who we are, but who we dare to become. #BookSky 💙📚

This holiday I've been binge watching Bond films. 1989 was a special year for me, and License to Kill has a special place in my heart. I adore the song. What's your favorite Bond song?
