Authors Against Book Bans @authorsabb.bsky.social · 27/06/2025

Our statement in response to the Supreme Court ruling in Mahmoud v Taylor. Image thread with alt text. 1/4

Today's Supreme Court decision, though couched in the language of freedom and inclusivity, is a tragic failure for both the right to read and the rights of LGBTQIA+ people. Authors Against Book Bans stands firmly and fiercely against the decision and its rationale. To allow parents to "object" to the presence of positive books about the lives and rights of LGBTQIA+ people is to allow them to "object" to the existence of LGBTQIA+ students, parents, educators, and others in the wider community. You cannot “opt out” of reality, no matter what today’s majority opinion states. These books belong on shelves and these stories belong in classrooms and curricula.

“I'm not for sale.” I blurt, desperate. “I'm not buying you.” The weight of his hand around my throat is comforting. “I’ve claimed you. You're already mine.” geni.us/fraternitas01

I can't stop staring at this art piece by Alexis. This will be a cover for the spicy comic book coming March of 2026. For more art and news about the sexy comic, follow my patreon: www.patreon.com/c/leesavino

A dark night with a rising moon behind three figures in a shallow pool. In the center, a curvy white woman draped in a red cloak. To her right, a huge, muscular warrior in a loin cloth and armed with a sword. He glares possessively at her. To the woman's left, a dark haired man holding a staff. Lots of sexy muscles and bare abs. Art based on the book Sold To the Berserkers by Lee Savino.

Push-back from non-POC authors when asked to write diverse characters isn't about craft, it's about money. 🤷🏾‍♀️ Anyway, check out my dark romantic suspense w/ a Black, disabled FMC, a MMC who is healing from trauma, and a dark secret society determined to tear them and the world apart. #romancelandia

There’s been a lot of heated discussion around KallmeKris’ YT video condemning “TikTok smut books” and fans of Dark Romance. I want to talk about how she’s using similar talking points as Book Banners she condemning explicit Romance with illustrated book covers. And I don’t think it’s an accident.

Libraries feel like something about which we could very easily be saying, “Remember that place where you could borrow books, for FREE, and return them when you were finished?” And kids would say “What?? No way!” And yet there they still are, despite everything we’ve become, existing. Remarkable.
