There is more representation and diversity in publishing than there used to be. Sometimes I look at YA books and think how much teenage me would have been thrilled to have these titles available to her.

eBay users! Don't ignore today's email, even though it looks like a boring standard update to the User Privacy Notice. They want to use your data to train AI models. If you click the link over the words "the right to object", it takes you to a page with a toggle button letting you opt out.

I've mentioned before I've updated my contracts to make sure everything in the production of my books is done by humans and not "AI"; if you're wondering what such a thing looks like, here's a clause covering that from a recent contract.

My fellow recovering perfectionists, that piece you've revised, edited, gotten feedback on, and revised and edited again and again? The time to send it out is now. ://authorspublish.com/73-publishing-grant-and-fellowship-opportunities-for-historically-underrepresented-writers-october-2026/

Must-read 🧵. The Dept of Ed aims to dismantle public schooling entirely; state-level voucher programs are key to the plan. As my forthcoming book shows, the “school choice” models described below put religious liberty and consumer choice claims to segregationist ends, enshittifying ed for all.

This week in Adventures with Brain Fog: I definitely had an idea for a flash story the other day. I thought I wrote it down but I haven't been able to figure out where. So maybe I didn't? Or maybe I did and will stumble across in six months?

What is your rejection ritual? I usually send the piece out again or, if I get feedback or it's been awhile since I looked it over, I'll do some revisions/edits. #WriteSky

What imaginary problem does this solve?

this is the website I used to leave the church as well. the Mormon church is so abusive & stalkerish that you have to go through a lawyer and also get a notarized statement saying you want out, otherwise they won't let you out of the church. they are an actually evil church.

While the below is true, the fastest tell is actually that no publisher is going to reach out to you to ask about your work. Ever. They just aren't.

We've now surpassed 75% of our funding goal! In addition to subscriptions, we've got t-shirts, mugs, signed books, stuff from the magazine archives... We're still about $12,000 away from our $50,000 target with 7 days remaining, so please consider backing if you haven't already. bit.ly/LS-NM-26

I'm excited to have a story in this! Got the chance to read the whole thing already, and there's lots of cool stuff in here

Some ~personal~ news: After five years, I have been laid off from @the-independent.com. I am grateful for the time I have had there. With that in mind, I am absolutely looking for new work opportunities, especially ahead if the midterms. My email is EMGarcia2009@gmail.com. My signal is emgarcia.85

I think the Goodreads rating for my horror collection, DEATH IN ITS MANY FORMS, is a much better testimonial than anything I could say to try and convince you it's good. Thank you, readers!! Go on, treat yourself to a new book for spooky season! #booksky www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...

As always, when a devastating new report about book bans in America is published, I challenge you to think less about the most banned author — Stephen King is fine — and more about the banned authors who are trying to scrabble together a living from their art. pen.org/report/book-...

I don't know the order so it's either MJ transforming into a werewolf in Thriller, the Herbie Hancock "Rockit" video, or that ad where the mops and brooms cleaned the old cobwebby house by themselves (I think it was Murphy's Soap Oil).

The heroine is clipboard-dependent. The hero has no idea what he's doing. The reader won't want to put it down. /jb Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B0... Apple: books.apple.com/us/b... Nook: www.barnesandnoble.c...
