If you are looking for anywhere to put some money today to help people who will need it IMMEDIATELY, ASISTA helps people without documentation who are victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking. These are EXACTLY the people being targeted by Trump RIGHT NOW.
Maureen Johnson@maureenjohnsonbooks.com · 2y agoHey, I'm going to ask your help in raising an achievable amount of money to help an organization (the head of which I have known since the age of 8) stay open. They assist immigrant survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault. It's called ASISTA, and they need money urgently: shorturl.at/O12lB
FYI-- I'm doing an annotated ARC Giveaway over on Instagram (reverieandink)!

Had to drop this stunning A Dance of Lies art (by Spookgeist on IG)💗 ADOL is available to add on Goodreads, especially if I can tempt you with dangerous espionage, rival kings, glittering castles with hidden secrets, and a chronically ill dancer MC🌒
It's odd, finishing this revision of LORD OF RUIN on Trans Day of Remembrance. I hope that readers will connect with my angry trans man in all his uncomfortable, unlikable glory. That they'll come out for this book next August. Isaac means so much to me, and I hope that he will to you, as well.
I hear this is where we're hanging now? Hi I'm Britt and my adult fantasy A DANCE OF LIES debuts June 2025 with Del Rey & Bloomsbury if you're into a Sansa Stark kinda vibe ft. a disabled dancer thrust into a nasty political web between rival kings⚔️
I saw this on the other site and I'll sum up what I said there: rage and fury at this clear cut bigotry towards a Palestinian author. Book is "Minor Detail" by Adania Shibli. I will buy and read; I've added it to my Goodreads for now.
A few years before I got very extremely sick (left), and then the year I started to recover somewhat and get a small fraction of my life back (right). A tan & loads of makeup help 😅 but what you don’t see are the IV scars, the way I fainted during that beach trip even amid feeling a little better.
