If someone chooses to:

-query agents - good luck to them
-submit to small presses - good luck to them
-self publish - good luck to them
-a mixture of all - good luck to them
-write only for the fun - good luck to them

Just wish them luck. It's not hard. Writer snobbery sucks.

young women’s criticism of the (violent) misogyny in “classic” lit should be taken 100% seriously. if a teen girl says the rapey overtones of 1984 ruin the whole book for her, she’s not less intellectual. this goes double for girls refusing to read classics that are misogynistic

as a trans woman of color who professionally consults on and edits books with trans characters i can confidently tell you that trans readers (especially trans readers of color) are not looking for more books where trans characters have to deal w transphobia.

Prairie Fires by @carolinefraser is still $1.99 at Amazon, y'all. It's a great deep dive into the life of Laura Ingalls Wilder. I wrote about it & the hardships lurking between the lines in the #LittleHouse books. #bookdeals #bookreview
