Hi, it’s really me. Maris, Mother of Bizzy. My old account got hacked and it turns out I’m too weak to give up Twitter.
I’m back, baby. Shutting down this account in a few (and always using 2-factor authentication from now on)
It's me, I'm back! I'm not trying to sell you laptops! I just want to talk about books and dogs and stuff. RIP to sweet Bizzy
Israel banned Western journalists from reporting inside Gaza. They have killed more than 175 Palestinian journalists. So a group of American doctors reported what’s happening from inside Gaza. Now Israel is banning those medical workers. A plea to Biden from one of them:
SCOOP: Guardian editor Katharine Viner personally intervened to block a piece by a preeminent Palestinian author for describing Gaza as "the holocaust of our time". Meanwhile staff claim they are subject to a "double standard" on Israel & Palestine: novaramedia.com/2024/10/18/dis…

Oh my god just write your own emails
I look forward to @mariskreizman1’s weekly email so much. If books and publishing are interesting to you, sign up for her newsletter (it’s in her bio).
A small but horrifying detail from the NYT's story on the Israeli military using Palestinians as human shields, how they're referred to insects. This is how Hutus referred to Tutsis. How slave owners referred to slaves. How the Nazis referred to Jews nytimes.com/2024/10/14/wor…
I cannot believe my original hacked Twitter account is still selling laptops for $600, signed by me! Where would I even sign?
Out from behind a paywall for a short time, here’s a roundtable I did with @ilanaslightly, @kwistent, and @D_felsenthal about the pains of being a freelance book critic…
This June, @FSP_NWU launched a campaign raising awareness of the plight of book critics. My friends and I in the book critics working group were delighted when @awpwriter asked us to continue this conversation with a roundtable in their October issue. awpwriter.org/TWC/2024-octob…
I had @ilanaslightly join me in my newsletter to write about a literary genre that I have dubbed "Holocaust Beach Reads." "Holocaust Beach Reads." Link in bio.
The big news is that the publisher of the Eras Tour book is Taylor Swift Publications.
Taylor Swift will take fans behind the scenes of her record-breaking Eras Tour in a new book. The book will contain a host of never-before-seen photos as well as personal reflections from the singer. It will be available in Target stores on Nov. 29. ow.ly/wGUg50TLRBC

It's a big day for new releases and I didn't even have Al Pacino on the pile!
the author I’d most like to see get Chotinered has gotten Chotinered!
New Interview: I talked to the novelist and commentator Howard Jacobson about his argument that sustained media coverage of children being killed in Gaza is functioning as a new “blood libel” against Jews. newyorker.com/news/q-and-a/r…
