No Dictadores! No Kings San Juan spoke against wars and kings and heinous local development. Was very cool to be here.

Y’all this Interview was so much fun! It’s really not that much about porn.

You know what you could do today instead of doomscrolling all day is go pick up a copy of Persepolis. It is stunningly good.

H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban all my books, & any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps & say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

What a delightful human and writer. And nobody’s done more for caves and cats in literature.

As a #novelist I treasure the marriage of idiosyncratic dialogue and unspeakable thought. Plays that break the fourth wall get this sensibility. Liberation and Prince Faggot are two to learn from. And they’re both poignant & hilarious too! #writingcommunity #theatre #dramaticwriting

Yes! They weave magic into the daily. Well said.

I barely listened to #audiobooks until I made one, and now I’m hooked. I agree with the NYPL’s head librarian: it’s different than reading a book but a charm in itself. I think of it as an additive, why increased accessibility benefits us all. #booksky www.nytimes.com/2025/11/23/o...

Totally agree. Great list this year. Admittedly, I haven’t a lot of it yet, but for the year overall Orbital and Martyr! are sticking with me long after reading.

Lauren Sanders @lisanders.bsky.social · 13/11/2024

I can get crabby about the big awards but Orbital is an odd little gem of a novel. Gorgeous and hypnotic. The cure for SpaceX overload. #BookerPrize #writing
