Writers of the world, I know a lot of you were interested in the idea of a charity anthology for Palestine in memory of Refaat Alareer. I'm in touch w/ a publisher, and preparing a query. If you are interested, pls get in touch with me asap. Thanks.

absolutely gonna work this into my everyday idiom in every conceivable context. like … yes, change in political consciousness, whether individual or collective, is very difficult and takes much patience and effort, but a bucket of rats cannot be filled in one night

If you are a citizen of a powerful state like the US, UK, EU, please take this pain, this grief and rage, and share it with others. Most of all, use it to put political pressure on your government. Demand an immediate ceasefire and an end to this atrocity of a settler colonial occupation.

The time for compartmentalizing your life, your work, and your politics is long over. Allow yourself to be unpartitioned and whole.

Cover reveal and announcement of my second novel RAKESFALL, out June 2024! Since the book is after all about the connectedness of all struggle against oppression, let me use this small platform for clarity: Palestine must be and will be free.

Well, time for my first thread here on BlueSky, and I'm pissed off. I've been catching up on the situation with F&SF and Sheree Thomas. I'm slow because I'm not on FB anymore, where apparently the bulk of the convo is happening, and I'm barely on Twitter. Anyway.

Sheree Renée Thomas has been a transformative editor at F&SF, publishing essential writers and stories. She doesn't deserve the problem she currently has to deal with there. But it doesn't surprise me that she has been forced to deal with it without publisher support. A thread. 1/x
