‼️ BREAKING: @PENAmerica has cancelled the World Voices Festival after mass withdrawals by authors in solidarity with Palestine. This is a win for the movement. It is an indictment of PEN America’s leadership. And contrary to their statement, it’s a win for free expression, too.

Barnes & Noble is withholding initial support of debut hardcovers til they find evidence it's worth stocking in their stores. They'll be focusing on guaranteed sales from paperbacks. A middle finger to debut authors esp if they're midlist & marginalized. Get mad, y'all. 1/?
