I am shooting my shot.
I love writing op-eds.
@teenvogue.com was my main outlet, but if there are any others (especially independently ran) that are looking for a contributing writer on race, gender, and the economy, I'd love to work with you.

Are there any decent hybrid / crowdfunding publishing houses in the UK? Been thinking about my OOP second novel lately and don't want to risk an Unbound, or waste my own money.

Just packaging up the latest orders for the Gaza fundraiser. Angel is always on hand to help. 🐈⬛😻
A ceasefire may have been agreed—we hope that it lasts—but this doesn’t stop the campaign to liberate the Palestinian people from occupation and apartheid.
The Sameer Project still needs your help.

It’s the last day of Queeriosities at Copeland Park in Peckham and I’m raising money for The Sameer Project who are working on the ground in Gaza.
It would mean the world if you’d buy the print. Sales could mean up to £1,400 going to provide vital aid to Palestinians during this genocide.
