116 years ago a bunch of working class women changed the world because they got together and fought for their rights. Their fight is still our fight.

Happy Publication day @gvaughnjoy.bsky.social 👏🏻
A friend sent me a picture of my book.
It's tangible and exists, and I am so fucking proud of myself.
Today is officially publication day, and it's hard to wrap my mind around it. I know many of you have written many books, but I never thought I could. 1/3
