The #Reads for the Rest of Us list for Dec is coming soon @MsMagazine! I'm also working on the mother of all "most anticipated" reads (by women, #TGNC, #queer, #fat, #immigrant, #neurodivergent, international, and otherwise underrepresented writers) of 2020 list.
It's a big job! I have over 300 titles that I am sifting thru; so many look fantastic. #Fiction, #nonfiction, #poetry, and more. Some I've already #read, others not yet. I've heard from or reached out to over 65 #publishers and #publicists, they are working hard for you!
Do I know about your #newbook? Message me, email me, Tweet me, if you're not sure. My goal is to help raise visibility of historically marginalized #writers. I'm so lucky to get to learn about and read your amazing work along the way!

Today I received suggestions to make my novel ‘more marketable’ to agents & publishers. The big one: Remove the main LGBT romance. Thread!
Name of helpful suggester withheld for privacy, of course, but I will say they are traditionally published author, and they did mean well.
They explained agents (& publishers) would be afraid to pub my book 'cause it doesn’t appeal to a wide audience since it’s LGBT and Sci-Fi.
