Saga Press is removing a Neil Gaiman quote from digital publicity about Blackheart Man, my forthcoming novel. But the 1st run books that have it on the dust jacket were printed months ago & have been shipped. It won't be on subsequent printings. /more

I need the straights out there to understand that the presence of queer characters isn't what makes a story queer, and that you will never be the authority on whether a story is or isn't queer. It's fine and healthy to acknowledge that not every conversation includes you.

I hear that! Thanks for asking. I'm also in the space where there is joy but then also rage and worry and it's all at the same time. Trying to balance staying informed with keeping my sanity in tact.

Recorded our next podcast episode yesterday and said, "I fully believe that joy is an act of resistance and also *resistance* is an integral part of resistance."

Guy waited five years and paid $102k for a Cybertruck, crashed it after four hours of driving, only for Tesla to tell him that "the accelerator may not disengage under braking" and that it will take $30k and one year to repair.

Truly an L of historical proportions.

Omg I wish I (re)watched this with you because the 1998 revival of the show was my complete obsession and I know every word from the cast recording. I even read the book it's based off. But it's been so long since I saw the film.
