Here we go!

Staking claim to a date because I’ve been thinking about this since May for a 🦋 #WIPSnips adjacent event.

Full guidelines forthcoming. There will be a #WIPSnips twist.

It is “author hype” so all stages will be welcome to participate.

Mark your calendars!

Shop #smallpresses and don't hate #indiebookstores because they have to stock popular fiction from the US in order to stay open.

I just wish we could increase the demand for Canadian books from Canadian presses. The Canadian indies publish amazing books! The consolidation of Canadian media has been so detrimental when it comes to promoting newer Canadian books. #CanLit

Hey #smallpublishers / #Smallpresses / #publishers / #publishingcommunity: Hypothetically, how might it benefit you to be in league with other small and medium-sized presses? I'm brainstorming, here, for the consortium I'm intending to build. #horrorpublisher #horror #horrorbooks

The sudden closure of Small Press Distribution is a crisis for many independent publishers, well explained in this @lithub article by @adamm0rgan.
He includes info on how you can support #smallpresses right now.
