@jinwoochong @WritersDigest I love this -- and I loved FLUX! Can't wait to read your new novel.

For my latest publishing deep dive in @esquire, I spent six months looking into the major celebrity book clubs: how they work, why they matter, and where they're heading in the age of BookTok.

for @esquire, I wrote 3,000 words on why it feels harder these days to make a debut novel truly "break out."

feat. Jack Kerouac, "the algorithm," literary it girls, and overworked publicists...

For Yes! Magazine, I wrote about 3 excellent recent books that explore who decides who gets to be a mother - and the need for a radical reimagining of our systems and supports, including foster care and the private #adoption industry.

[YES! Magazine @yesmagazine]

Who Gets to Be a Mother? Visit the link below to read about how making motherhood accessible for all requires moving away from punitive models—including foster care—that criminalize poverty.

Huge fumble by Disney. National Treasure 3 could have 0% on Rotten Tomatoes and so long as the trailer has Nic Cage say something insane like "FDR's wheelchair isn't just a wheelchair, it's a map" I am there opening night.

BIG speech from Cord Jefferson for Best Adapted Screenplay: “This means the world to me, thank you so much. I’ve been talking a lot about how many people passed on this movie – it’s a plea to acknowledge and recognise that there are so many people out there who want the opportunity that I was given.

"I understand this is a risk-averse industry – but instead of making one $200 million movies, try making ten $20 million movies. The next Scorsese is out there, the next Nolan is out there; they just want a shot.”

Hi book Twitter! We’ve not received enough middle grade author pitches for the Bronx Book Festival. I’ve hit a wall requesting some MG authors from certain publishers. Sooooo I’m coming to social to see if there are any MG authors who want to pitch themselves for programming

Historically, Super Tuesday referred to when Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel aired on a Tuesday night on The WB back at the tail end of the last century.

In addition to creating a scholarship for Palestinian Authors to our #thsw, we are waiving all associated application fees for applying.

To quote @rashaabdulhadi, we offer this as sand in the gears of genocide.

Tracy: Orange and black decorations? Is this Halloween or Princeton parents weekend? I don't know whether to be scared or proud of my cousin!
Kenneth: It's Halloween sir.
Tracy: Proud it is!

Reporters! Some very basic information about adoption and tips on how to cover it. I have seen all of these points misrepresented or ignored in recent reporting. 🧵

[The New York Times @nytimes]

South Korea has the world’s largest diaspora of intercountry adoptees. Now some of them are returning to the country — which has the lowest birth rate globally — to hold the government accountable for what they call a corrupt and predatory adoption system. https://t.co/b0RMvyVOFg
