I recommend 5 works in Korean SFF in English translation for @tordotcom.

“Creating a world in which writers of color thrive ought to be embraced as a long-term project. Many people on the ground are working toward such a world. But it won’t happen unless executives follow suit.” Thank you @RichardJeanSo for this insightful article!

I wrote about the publishing industry's post #BLM diversity push - the largest transformation of its kind in US history - and their current attempts to dismantle it, for quite dubious reasons w/ @dan_sinykin at @TheAtlantic. A thread to summarize the article's main arguments >>>

@VermaPrasanta Always. It’s important to rest and recharge after each project.🩷

I will definitely use these as I edit my novel. Thank you @AlyssaMatesic for this great list of editing hacks! #editing #writingcommunity

[Alyssa Matesic @AlyssaMatesic]

Editing your own writing can feel as painful as pulling teeth. As a developmental editor, I have a few tricks up my sleeve that can make the process so much smoother & more efficient. 

Here are some of my favorite self-editing hacks that many of my clients swear by. A 🧵:

내가 그의 날개를 잘랐다면
그는 내 것이 되었을텐데
그리고 나를 떠나지 않았을텐데
그래, 하지만, 그랬다면…
그는 더이상 새가 아니었겠지.
그리고, 나는
내가 좋아했던 것은 새야.

@DorothyGreco I think setting realistic goals for myself will be the challenge!😂 since these kinds of breaks from family responsibilities are so rare. Thanks for that reminder.

[Soyoung L Kim 이소영 @soyounglkim]

Hey #WritingCommmunity anyone taken themselves on a personal writing retreat? Any tips/advice on making the most of your time? I got 4 days away from my family and am starting to plan and set some goals for my manuscript #amediting

[Soyoung L Kim 이소영 @soyounglkim]

As a writer of fiction, particularly novels, it’s ironic that I have gotten published so far a micro fiction, an essay and now poetry! Not complaining - these are all important projects to me. But it does make me wonder…🤔
