I feel like most authors don't rly want Stephen King levels of stardom, where we can't grab a meal w/o people crying at the table. Most of us just want to support our families, afford health care, have 30 people show up to a book signing, and write books that mean something to those who need them.

my press Alice James Books is having a great sale right now—don’t miss out on the chance to preorder my book Theophanies (or books by @theoceanisgay.bsky.social, @omotarajames.bsky.social!) ✨ also is that….a tiny peek at my cover…? 🫢 https://www.alicejamesbooks.org/
