first words Sonya Massey said at her front door were “don’t hurt me”

she was told “why would we hurt you, you called us”

when have those words meant anything when your black and woman in this country

when do those words protect you from not being murdered in your kitchen, in your bedroom, with your babies, or on your lawn

what is “reassurance”, in this place ?

rest in power Sonya Massey, and an abundance of love and power to Sonya’s family on this journey

this thread is so real.. and it starts with publishers lowballing Black authors with their advances. large advances force marketing teams to scramble to create a campaign to recuperate costs, which takes away money and resources from other books.

[ayesha - iso meltdown tix! @ayeshareads]

yesss! if a writer or narrator doesn’t spoon-feed readers, it’s not an indication of bad writing. these are creative choices that exist for a reason. pls continue to challenge yourself to think the extra step — reading is a SKILL as much as writing is!

[Nicholas is Arthuriana-Pilled🍉 @ZephonSacriel]

People just cannot handle unreliable narration these days. Like, they have no understanding of what it is or what it's trying to do. Not everything is given to you straight forward.

[hana is OPEN to queries last week of every month! @hel_no_wai]

If you are looking for a news source that interviews Israelis, Palestinians, and the full range of world leaders, with reporters on the ground in Gaza, try Aljazeera. https://t.co/L78Q2qPFPB

This is about 5 days too late for a quickly developing humanitarian crisis that has been egged on by our governments and the power structure of this country. I am deeply disturbed by the way this government has been so callous at dividing the value of lives according to ethnicity

After reading this post & comments / retweets, I've been thinking about what I, one white agent, can do to help with these numbers. Here's my decision: I'm going to reopen for all genres I represent to ONLY POC writers. Once my unresponded queries # is at 200, I'll reopen to all.

@carlywatters not a writer but as a newbie i wasn’t well versed in imprints (couldn’t recognize an imprint vs publishing company) especially between CA / US where some
imprints exist in both and some just in one.

[ayesha - iso meltdown tix! @ayeshareads]

@JaelRichardson it went from fun vibes to copy/paste generic feminist monologue.. the tonal change lost me at the 1/3 mark. i expected the plot to be about barbie connecting with the original owner in a kinda pink feminist santa claus way, not her fighting ken's patriarchal reign in barbie world

[ayesha - iso meltdown tix! @ayeshareads]

@JaelRichardson omg thank you! it felt seriously disjointed. the dialogue was all over the place and not in a quirky, doll-like way. i love greta a lot so i was kinda shocked as the hallmarks of what i love about her movies are exactly the things that missed for me with barbie :(
