I knew her. I loved her. She changed my life, and I’ll never forget the things she taught me.
Dorothy Allison was a living trigger warning—being born southern white trash, a woman, a lesbian & a survivor of incest & violence. Her courage & fire changed the landscape of our literature forever—and changed us, And now she joins the ancestors. Rest in power, dear friend.

We've come a LONG way, baby . . . but women can lose it all if we don't get out & vote misogynistic policy mongers into the trash heap of history. You have your assignment, now get busy!
Women over 65 remember what it was like before Roe v. Wade became the law of the land. That's why they are voting for Kamala.

Ohhhh. I wonder if this guy could explain my books to me, too?
Every female author appreciates it when the books they write are explained to them by men . . . #asshat

Roald Dahl told us many important things—this is among the most important: “Somewhere inside of all of us is the power to change the world.” We're in this together & the future of our literature is on the ballot. Please let us know when you've COMPLETED THE ASSIGNMENT.

What she said. Mine is gone, too!
I’ve had a subscription to the Washington Post since 1989. I kept it even after I moved out of the DC area in 2012. This breaks my heart—you were my “home” newspaper. Democracy Dies in Cowardice.
