Hey @briankeene.bsky.social! I'm trying to get my first editing project off the ground--a cosmic horror anthology from marginalized groups. Was wondering if you'd be so kind as to help me spread the word a bit! God I wish Bluesky let me just message people... www.kickstarter.com/projects/902...

Please order our books at your library - it helps in so many ways: - it's a sale - it exposes library goers (who often aren't books buyers) to our work, and what we really need are readers - in Aus and UK we get paid for every borrow - libraries are awesome and deserve support
