80% of what gets published is designed to appeal exclusively to privileged white neoliberal women readers and the privileged white neoliberal women who work in publishing.

Alot of y’all’s faves are simply yt FMCs cosplaying historical and present-day oppressions perpetrated against BIPOC individuals. But when those same experiences are explored in BIPOC books “it’s too much trauma, too heavy-handed, or doesn’t allow for escapism” ☕️

Especially the first thing. Why do MCs have to win high-school popularity contests by being likable? Why isn’t being compelling in their convictions enough?
Here’s a collection of things I’ve said that make people angry: - Main characters don’t have to be likable to be great/memorable - Sometimes it’s okay to tell instead of show - “said (insert name)” is a great, effective dialogue tag - Fuck italicizing “other” languages

Can’t wait to work with @MarcosSGonsalez on getting his book out in the world! Where my galley at already?!
Yaasss! It’s 🌈COVER REVEAL🌈 Friday for @MarcosSGonsalez’s IN THEORY, DARLING! This is his love letter to queer of color theory, how it helped him discover himself, and reminds us just how life-giving it can be. Watch this space in May 2025! 👀 Cover design: Louis Roe

This just makes me really sad. There's some anger but mostly sadness, at all the artists - now and in the future - whose growth and craft will be forever stunted and weakened by these insidious tools and the hype that's made them seem appealing.
This is not just bots. We are seeing more and more submissions by writers with publication records who are almost certainly using AI to create initial drafts and then are trying and failing to edit things into shape.
