It's super disheartening to see that dude getting a 2 book trad publish deal, when he hasn't even written a book yet, he just pitched an idea and has virality on his side. Especially considering there are people from marginalized identities who are extremely talented & have been querying forever.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! it’s like a birthday, but instead of cake, I get to remind everyone that gender is fake and I am Unstoppable.
Being trans means a lot of things—like paperwork that was clearly designed to make me suffer, or explaining (again) that no, my existence is not a debate—

Hey, romance readers with chronic illness! What kind of rep do you hope to see in the next couple years? Not just specific dx, but also certain lifestyles, relationships with families, doctors, homebound days, mobility aids, inclusion of Covid reality, etc? Curious of your interests 👀
