When I was a teenager, I told my mother I was determined to publish one of my poems in the New Yorker. It was the only magazine I knew at the time that published "real" poems. So much has happened. This week, a poem about my mother is in the New Yorker. newyorker.com/magazine/2020/…

Our hearts go out to the debut authors of the season, many of whom spent years, perhaps a lifetime, waiting for the dream moment when their first book would make its way into the world. nyti.ms/2VnCXlC

To be clear: Abortion is NOT an elective medical procedure. It's essential healthcare and must be available during the pandemic. It can't be delayed. Patients can't wait until an undetermined later date to get an abortion. We need to make access available throughout the pandemic.

Have my volunteer text line shift with @JanesDueProcess tonight. Young people still need access to judicial bypass, abortion, and contraception even in a pandemic. The barriers we place to these in law actively harm public health even when we’re not dealing with COVID-19.

if you want bookstore events, now's absolutely the time to buy from those bookstores and tell all your networks to do so, too.
support where you want support, y'all.

If your book debut has been impacted by COVID-19 (or will be) please reply with your title, author name if it's different from your Twitter handle, and release date or ISBN! @LibraryJournal is compiling a list to help collection development librarians. RTs appreciated.

It's #BlackWomensEqualPay Day & #BlackWomenCantWait any longer for pay equity.
There are many causes of the gender pay gap, & we need many approaches to fixing it. We need to fight for change across companies, culture AND laws.
Here are a few resources & actions to consider.
