I am not active on twitter as much as I used to be, but I wanted to share that I am open for work! My position at Lambda Literary was cut so I am looking for freelance and full time work, specifically in editorial, administration, and project management.

Maybe one day I will be able to talk about the complexities of my feelings about leaving my dream job in publishing for a nonprofit job that offered me a lot more money.

The questions that people should be asking. 👇🏾

Wasn't Nnedi Okorafor's "Who Fears Death" supposed to be "in the works"? What happened?

When we say "check on your (x identity) friends," we should be more specific. Just ask, how are you doing? Not "did you see what shitty piece of legislation just passed?" Maybe it's just me.

Thanks @parrishturner for taking the time to chat with me about the recent strike and solidarity across the writing world! And congrats to @hcpunion for holding strong and reaching a contract!

Real Q: Who wants to set me up on a date with their friends?

How is asking for a livable wage that isn’t even actually a livable wage in NYC ungrateful behavior? Esp when the workload is endless. Ppl at the top have no idea how cost of living has shifted from when they started, and probably don’t acknowledge the privilege they had then.

CEOs don’t protect us, but unions do. Codified protections for BIPOC workers, livable wages, and union security can’t come soon enough. #HoldtheLine for a better publishing industry.
