Since all meta sites appear to be crashing, a reminder to all readers and writers that social media is fickle!
If you love an author's work, join their mailing list so you don't lose track of them because of some billionaire's bad idea!
And authors, make a mailing list TODAY if you don't have one!

Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.
They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.
Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .
Thank you.

I love that so many are advocating for libraries on my TL. If you don't know already, you can connect your library card to Libby, which allows you to read books on the Kindle store for FREE. #Booksky
