Precisely at the point when you begin to develop a conscience you must find yourself at war with your society.

On Juneteenth, we commemorate the anniversary of the delayed but welcome news of freedom reaching the enslaved Black folks in Galveston, Texas. It’s a reminder that even in the darkest hours, there is cause to hope — and a reason to keep building a country that lives up to its highest ideals.

Tomorrow I’ll be doing an AMA on @Reddit at 12pm ET on r/Horror. Come talk Lone Women, writing, comics, or you can ask me why I have a skull on the bookshelf behind me. Should be fun. @OneWorldLit

sometimes when fate closes a door it's a good thing because the house actually eats people and if that door hadn't blown shut you'd be in a house monster's gut right now being slowly digested

in hindsight the plot of The Great Gatsby makes infinitely more sense when you remember that the author and all of the characters have been driven to the brink of stark-raving, shoelace-eating madness by three years of a global flu pandemic

Also! There are SO MANY books! It’s not humanly possible to write the best one ever. Write your book as well as you personally can do it. That’s the most any of us can do

In a culture that celebrates youth and the over-achiever, it’s easy to forget that people have value regardless of age or level of income. You have inherent worth and dignity simply by virtue of being human. “Your existence is significant and your participation vital.”

Most people don't know what books are. Half the time ya'll say books, even seasoned industry pros, they mean novels. Why else have a list of "books" with only novels. That's a list of novels. Anthologies are books, collections are books. Comics are books, graphic novels are books
