“oh no one will talk to you anymore because youre an asshole? youre in luck buddy, being an asshole is now classified as a political position…thats right, youre not being ostracized bc you make everyone miserable, youre being censored for your political views”

Gonna host another query letter webinar at the start of the New Year, to help fund various free in-person events.

Help me, help you! :-)

Three Zoom hangs, a critique on your query, notes on your first ten pages. It’ll be fun. www.ericsmithrocks.com/blog/2025/12...

Absolutely devastated by the passing of Alice Wong @sfdirewolf.bsky.social
Her work, her activism, and her candor enriched this world in so many ways. An immeasurable loss, not just for the disabled community—and also: what an incredible legacy.

NEW WORK NEW WORK NEW WORK for people who are fans of that!
