There was a little buzz a while back about THE STEERSWOMAN books by Rosemary Kirstein, which was how I came to read them. It was not NEARLY enough buzz. About discovery, and they perform discovery so well; just so special when a book can bring you along on just all the levels.

Both? Of my kids??? Cheerfully went to Gleam?????? [art/light installation at the local botanical garden] and they had fun and we didn’t have a meltdown even when we had sudden Dead Best Friend feelings (RIP Jeffrey) at the praying mantis exhibit???? Is this what most parents get most of the time??

I strongly recommend this particular essay, by published author Becky Allen, on what failure in publishing can look like. If you write, I urge you to read this. buttondown.com/allreb/archi...

On failure.

It's the tenth anniversary of Bound by Blood and Sand being published… and I think enough time has passed to talk about how it flopped.

Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

INTRODUCTION

The equities here could not be more one-sided. Defendants admit that they
provide a service without fully knowing how it works.

This is not just any service. It is one that Defendants themselves concede poses an existential risk to the continued
survival of humankind.

Defendants claim they cannot stop barreling forward with their potentially civilization-ending endeavors unless they are forced to do so by the
government. They have asked the government to tie them to the mast.

Plaintiff brings good news to the Defendants: The Florida Attorney General is answering your
cry for help with a motion to enjoin you from harming Floridians with your reckless, unacceptably risky product.

Just what Monday morning needed—a TERF complaining about our lack of books of erotica for lesbians (?????) and how weak our women’s history section is and how disappointing it is to se all the books about Palestine on display . I was so fucking annnoyed that I just walked away. Not my finest.

#physicalaggression Aaaaaaand then I got to the school just in time to find my kid having a huge aggressive meltdown in the school lobby, and joined their support aide in getting bitten/kicked/punched/slapped for about 20 minutes until they came out of it. It hurt. When I say it’s hard…. It’s hard.
