This is EXTREMELY fucked up and I hope you change the headline because I will not be the only person to notice your massive insensitivity in framing this very real AI issue by minimizing the lives of Iranians.

What the hell are you doing with this headline @latimes.com ??? While this article presents a very scary situation with AI, why are you using it to minimize the president's threats to wipe out the population of Iran??

This is by far the best and most nuanced take I've seen on this, thank you! I've tried to explain some of these points to people over on Threads (as an anti-AI author!) and it did not go well. One dude likened it to r*pe allegations and said we need to ruin a few people for the greater good 😳

Men: Women shouldn't vote because they're too weak and frightened to see the harsh realities of the world. My husband: Why are we watching this documentary about a guy who beheaded his mom? Me: LOOK I NEED SELF CARE AND SOMETHING CALMING BEFORE THE BEDTIMES

I got one just like that too! " This reads like it was written for 5th graders" Thanks, that's who I wrote it for! 🫠

A haunted house but it's all adults who are annoyed that your YA book feels like it's written for teenagers.

In good news (which I know I need these days), my book Drew Leclair Gets a Clue (which has been challenged in four states, and had been pulled from shelves in one county in Florida) seems to have been restored to shelves! Not sure if it's been relocated to YA but I'll take the win 🎉

It's so hard to move past even though I know I need to. It's this injustice sensitivity because I think, being on their side, I should be able to get them to see truth but I can't 😔

To be clear, my expectations are "people who have means should be willing to get fired over fascism." Jimmy Fallon already has millions. He has a late-night career far longer than the average lifetime career of most pro athletes. He could walk away now and be FINE.

Thanks to @katrynwrites.bsky.social and her podcast WRITE WHERE IT HURTS, I am now getting serotonin bursts from Amy Poehler's new podcast A GOOD HANG which is already a great thing alone but it took me to this opening of the first episode.

Elio is brilliant and it's hard not to assume that Disney so spectacularly shit the bed on marketing because of its themes of inclusion and acceptance.

Katryn Bury @katrynwrites.bsky.social · 08/06/2025

Can you speak more strongly on this? A few posts about this being a mistake isn't enough. Los Angeles needs you front and center right now. California needs you to have our back. Where are you?

Take note, querying authors! I was 250 rejections and several books in the hole when I did DVPit and it changed my life 🥰

Hi, all! Realizing that I'm spending problem amounts of time online and overwhelmed when I could be writing/calling my reps and responding to local issues. For the next 100 days, I'm gonna be offline and focused on that work. Bye for a bit! 👋🏻 #writingcommunity #resist #author

Hi, #booksky ! I'm trying to make a big push to get my org to commit to buying more books by marginalized authors, even for the non-culture-specific book giveaways like Summer Reading. Drop your book (last 5 years) in picture book, CB, MG, YA (fiction, but especially nonfiction! Give me your joy!

So thrilled to see that Drew Leclair Gets a Clue was chosen by a Michigan middle schooler as Canton Public Library's best books! It makes me so happy to see that kids are still discovering this book after three years 🥹 #middlegrade #middlegradebooks #kidsbooks #mglit

Canton Public Library's "kids pick best books" form. 11 year old says that their pick, DREW LECLAIR GETS A CLUE (cover pictured) is their favorite because of the twists in the mystery, the queer rep, and it being a good book in general"

I'm so glad I've been saving for 15 years for a trip outside the country and that I'm leaving in a month, when airline safety is a total shitshow. This... tracks, honestly 🫠🥴

Social Media not allowing ppl to edit is an affront to the author community. So... many mistakes 😅
