UK publishing generated £7.4 billion in revenue last year. Compare that to: Premier League football: £6.6 billion Home entertainment: £5.6 billion UK film industry: 2.8 billion Now tell me again why authors don't deserve fair contracts and better pay.

-Trump wants to gut WIC's fruit and vegetable benefit for new and expecting moms -His EPA has rolled back environmental protections that keep air and water clean -His big, ugly bill sparked the closure of over 40 maternity care providers Trump never actually cared about moms or maternal health.

Vague setting ("a mountain") in a fable-style novel I'm reading bothers me. I think that all the dark, wonderfully dreadful settings I read about in horror fiction have me spoiled... #booksky #horror

“Totally exonerated”…..riiiiight. 👀 #ReleaseTheFiles

Any "extraordinarily brilliant person" would know his presidency is in free-fall after his disastrous decision to enter another endless war-of-choice in the Middle East & that on November 3rd accountability is coming for the most corrupt criminal Administration in U.S. History. tick...tick...tick

Music is joy.Joy is resistance. Congrats to the wonderful singers in my Rock Voices community chorus on an awesome concert this weekend! #music

The American gestapo abducted an 85 year-old widow. Was she one of the worst of the worst? No, her step-son, a retired Alabama state trooper, got ICE to put her in a detention center to deport her because he wanted all of his father's inheritance. Sounds like the son is the worst of the worst.

A good friend & a peaceful, local No Kings protest make me feel inspired to keep resisting Trump's fascist, capricious rule.

It should make Republicans *very* nervous to compare the listless unattendance of conservatives at CPAC this week with the enthusiastic, overwhelming attendance of liberals at #NoKings events a day later.

#WeSayNoKings!!!

Busy parents who resist in quiet ways, Minecraft & @50501movement.bsky.social have the event for you... #nokings #momsky

This has been the GOP's "starve-the-beast" scheme for nearly 50 years. Meanwhile, millions suffer and struggle to get ahead as the rich get richer. See the problem here?

“I believe in immersion in the events of a story. I take it on faith that the truth lies in the events somewhere, and that immersion in those real events will yield glimpses of that truth.” -Tracy Kidder. Goodbye to an excellent nonfiction writer. #TracyKidder #booksky

Hilarious yet based on truth! Right, Houston?

Saying The Quiet Part Out Loud Dept.-Kinda sounds like he's admitting he interfered in the election with VERY specific statistics. I quit Twitter because he bought it, way before his confession he stole the election for the Orange Atrocity. 🍊💩 Now I'm SURE I made the right decision! 👍

Thought of a fun story idea... in the 3rd to last row at the MS & HS student band concert... of course pens down & phones off... what was that idea again? #writesky #authorsky
