My hottest #romancelandia take is that romance authors need to be showing way more solidarity with sex workers in the war on porn.

At a certain point, you need to know where the line is upon which you’ve written your morality. You need to be aware of the impact of your material support, and learn to be comfortable feeling the shameful weight of things. There’s nothing you can write that will absolve you of that.

Hi.
I recently took in a houseless teen. She came with a backpack filled with mostly school supplies & doesn't have much as far as clothes or personal items.
If you'd like to toss a dollar or two at her so she can get some clothes, it would be greatly appreciated!
