“Defund the police” shouldn’t be an issue if you’ve paid attention to the rate in which police funding has increased in comparison to education, social programs, education again, etc.

And because their race isn't treated like a genre, a white author doesn't have to be worried that the low sales of another white author puts the financial viability of *their* book in question, undermining their shot at better advances and marketing. #PublishingPaidMe

What I learned about advances:

White author I’ve never heard of:
1st book: $75k
2nd book after 1st book flop: $125k
3-book series: $1m

BIPOC author whose books literally saved my life:
1st book: $5k
2nd book after crit acclaimed 1st book: $15k
3rd book: $40k

The contrast here is amazing. #PublishingPaidMe
They both post their 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trilogies but the compensations are wildly different. I loved Broken Earth and it seems very widely read so I'm shocked at $25k for it.
