I'm so happy to share that my memoir No Son of Mine is available for pre-order @KentuckyPress! It's a book about mother/son relationships, estrangement and grieving, Appalachia, queer love, and ultimately, forging new families beyond bloodlines. <3 https://t.co/Er6oOYas2Q

Don’t forget JD Vance’s connections to quiet billionaire puppeteer Peter Thiel who says “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible” and has some choice words about women getting the right to vote.

@lauraleighwrite Has an actual ecological purpose that involves zero grifting 😂 I approve this pick.

[Jonathan Corcoran @thejoncorcoran]

You all, THAT book is currently no. 1 on Amazon right now. Do me a favor and get out there and buy a book--any book--from an Appalachian author you love. Don't let this man set and control the narrative of a region (or God forbid, the whole country).

[Jonathan Corcoran @thejoncorcoran]

@AvashiaNeema @guardian wonderful. Clear-eyed and the truth folks need to hear. Thank you!

[Neema Avashia @AvashiaNeema]

Sending solidarity to all my Appalachia anothers today. Honored to have these words up at @guardian. Please give them a read. https://t.co/4YtgsUF8zo

Donald Trump chooses J.D. Vance as running mate.

ICYMI: @Meredith_McC explores Vance's rise and what it tells us about America’s relationship with whiteness, the power of narrative and the utility of poverty for a politician.https://t.co/wvlssDohG0

"It turned out that reading Phillips’ stories and novels was a crash course in how the dust of conflict lands everywhere, how the reverberations from foreign battles are felt in the places we consider safe." @thejoncorcoran https://t.co/VNpAWosTHQ
