It makes me so happy to see your book announcements, cover reveals, preorder links, blurb opinions. Please, give them to me. It's a gift. You want to know why? It means books still exist, writers still exist, and that is the world I want to live in. Yes, everything is awful. I still want books.

It's a hard time to publish new work & I'm worried our November Issue will get lost in the breaking-news shuffle. So I'd be especially grateful this month if you could support our incredible contributors by reading @splitlipthemag.bsky.social's stunning new issue. 💕
Please help us welcome our gorgeous new 💫 NOVEMBER ISSUE 💫
