Dear authors, never apologize for telling us about your new books. People are hungry to support real art, made with the human brain, and the human heart, and typed by human hands. Please scream your work from the rooftops. You are so necessary and you deserve your flowers.

I saw a post on Threads from Beth Revis, a fellow author: "Destruction is always easier than creation. They're destroying a lot right now. Go create something good."

Her words inspired me to make a bit more progress on my WIP today, and I hope they can inspire you to continue creating, too.

Week 2 of my April writing challenge was a success! The first draft is often the toughest to get through, so I'm proud of how much progress I've made in the first half of the month already 🩶

First week was (mostly) a success! I can't remember the last time I got myself up to write every day for a week, so even if I fell short of the word count, I'm happy for showing up and putting in the effort anyway.

Hello #authorsky! Long time, no see. I've been in hermit mode trying to get this newest WIP done, and I've set up a fun lil challenge for myself this month. I'll drop back in to post weekly progress updates 🩶

i wonder if maybe we should stop writing post-apocalyptic fiction just until we're sure that's not where rich people are getting their ideas

Hi.
It’s Hakeem Jeffries.
The stock market is getting crushed, civil rights are being destroyed, our country is evolving into an autocratic monarchy, and the planet’s on fire.
Find out how this happened in my new book “The ABC’s Of Democracy”, available for $13.95 on Amazon & major book retailers.

I've been getting back into a smooth routine of writing, and watching the progress bar slowly fill up is so so satisfying 🥰

Your friendly neighborhood librarian here...buy physical copies of your favorite books, especially challenged or banned books. Preferably from small local merchants. That's all; carry on. #Read #BookSky #Resist 📚

As an author who published her first book just last month, I needed to hear this so much. Thank you 🩶
Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

Opinion | Trump’s War on D.E.I. Is Really a War on Civil Rights
The genius of the right-wing crusade against D.E.I. is that the term is amorphous enough that it can mean many different things to many different people.

Remember. It’s never:

We fight for (these people) because maybe we’re more at risk if we don’t.

No more Niemölling.

We fight because they are coming for anyone.

Every single person matters.

Each and every human being’s life and safety is worth the fight.
