@briankeene.bsky.social I have an Alex McVey original as well (saw yours on your Patreon) Alex sent this to Jim, but because Blind Shadows was my first novel, Jim gave it to me. He was like that, as you know.

8) You have a voice. You have ideas and opinions. You have skills. And we value those things. When we pool together our collective strengths, we could be unstoppable. Glass ceiling? Hell, a steel ceiling couldn’t stop us!

Listening to Howard Stern interviewing Stephen Wilson Jr. this morning, and it is honest, earnest, and real. Absolutely fascinating and moving discussion of art and creativity. One of the Top 10 Stern Show interviews of all time (and I've been listening since the DC-101 days).

Ten Reasons Why You Should Attend the STC AuthorCon Women’s Writers’ Symposium (A Thread):

1) You identify as a woman, & you are a writer. You know what the climate of the world/this country is like toward women right now. You know what it is like in publishing for us. Your solidarity is needed.
