On behalf of all self-published authors, I authorize you to reach out & tell us if you really enjoyed something we wrote. Weāre all dog-paddling in a sea of self-doubt & impostor syndrome & those little messages mean a lot. Unless stated otherwise, our DMs/inboxes are always open for kind words š

One of the most remarkable things of the last 9 months is how many Americans seem to believe the President is all powerful and Congress has no say. Actually Congress has been ineffective by choice. It has immense power if it had the courage to use it.

Fascism is here. We are not āgetting closerā or āin danger of.ā This matters because it frames our discussion: We arenāt trying to prevent it, weāre trying to defeat it. Itās not taking over our institutions, itās taken them over. Otherwise, weāre always behind, fighting a past weāve already lost.
