Finally: I am now switching this account to Major Updates only. I plan to leave it entirely soon. By lingering here too long, I fear I’ve already contributed too much to the degradation of the Marketplace of Ideas. Find me on the other social medias.

Be well, Friends!

[Darius Jones @DariusJonesWrit]

Who knows? Your words might just be the only thing that ends up saving us from oblivion. So, write on, Friends. Please.

[Darius Jones @DariusJonesWrit]

It can be so again. And I believe it will. So, stay strong and write on through the darkness. I know I plan to…Here’s someone who put it much better than I, a number of years ago: Ursula K. Le Guin. The dark times may continue, but so do we. So do we. https://t.co/eJ5SD0yvhc

I may be biased, but I think that’s particularly true of writers. In the past, when things were bleakest and all hope was lost it was often writers, and scribes, and storytellers that people turned to. And the people heard their words—and remembered what they had forgot.

Third, if you’re a writer, a musician, an artist, or anyone who creates stuff, here’s my wish: That you take all that you’re feeling now…All of that hurt, all that anger, all that grief you feel and turn into something lasting and beautiful. Something powerful and earth-shaking.
