To every writer currently on submission, staring at their inbox at 11pm: you wrote a whole book. A whole one. That is extraordinary regardless of what happens next. The waiting is awful and you are not alone in it. Keep going.

It's funny how many men come into my mentions to "protect women's sports" but have zero other posts talking about women's sports, or even women, in any kind of meaningful or supportive way.

While we are in this Greek Mythology moment, may I remind you that Emma Thompson is adapting Pat Barker’s take on The Iliad, and she’s struggled to get it made bc the focus on what acts of war against women and survival thereafter actually look like (the core of Barker’s narrative) is too intense.

The actress told the Hay Festival she is writing a film version of Pat Barker’s The Silence of the Girls to draw attention to sexual abuse in war zones

No, Gen-X didn't have an Andrew Tate. But we had Hollywood execs who pushed out movies like Porky's and Revenge of the Nerds to teenage boys. Movies that turned rape and sexual harassment into jokes. Rape culture is learned, and we all went to the same school. "Not all men" is a bullshit cop-out.
