Just a few hours of mentoring a month can help a young person get into college, advance their creative career, or publish their dream novel. Can you help? Mentor applications are being accepted on a rolling basis for the Girls Write Now Collaboratory: bit.ly/45KMjeh

FINALLY one of the boys from that bike incident gets to tell their side of of the story. I hope everyone who went off and running with the lawyer's narrative will at least come back and give this a good-faith read. newsone.com/4592993/sarah-…

i used to think self-promotion was a really icky concept & practice, until i realized that the actual self-centered thing is to believe that people will just flock to your work (based on talent/"merit") without you having to say anything about it/support readers in finding it

Killing off public schools & privatizing them is already estimated to be $47.9 billion industry. Bigger than online sports betting. The cannabis industry won’t hit that til 2030. It’s already 3x the size of check cashing / payday loan industry – and just as predatory. (1/4)

Unpopular opinion: I don't think high schoolers should be forced to read classic literature. I know, I wasn't ready until much later. Rather, I'd like to see them read contemporary fiction that meets them where they are and turns them into lifelong readers. That's our future.
