Our brilliant typesetter sent us proofs today and I wholeheartedly admit that seeing a manuscript begin to physically become A Real Book makes me feel proud and weepy. As publishers, we are so lucky to be a part of the story. #indiepublishing #indieauthor #typesetting #YayTypeSettersAreSoCool

A massive thread of resources, history, information, and material to help you not only fight and understand book censorship but protect the incredible democratic institutions of public libraries and public education.

This is updated regularly!

100% - if we want indie bookstores we need to shop indie bookstores (same logic: if we want indie presses we need to shop indie presses, if we want diverse books we need to shop diverse books...) #kidlit

Susan Crawford wins the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, according to many election analysts.

This after Elon Musk and others poured millions into anti-transgender advertisements in the state.

The anti-trans panic failed in Wisconsin.

This is a major victory for LGBTQ+ people in the state.
