WHAT THE FUCK OHMYGOD?! ADULT, ARMED, MALE ISRAELI SOLDIERS ARE BRUTALLY ATTACKING AND ASSAULTING A 12 YEAR OLD PALESTINIAN GIRL. WHERE IS THE CONSCIENCE? THEY HAVE GONE BEYOND CROSSING THE LINE. THIS IS SICK AND DIABOLICAL.

It's okay to forgive people for something wrong they tweeted back in 2012 or a mistake they made in 2016. If they apologised genuinely, have shown growth, and educated themselves since, don't hold them to what they were. Not all people are resistant to change, you know?

I think the problem with publishing right now is because writers are being forced to produce books in such inhuman speed, good writing is really hard to come by, making books and authors a lot more forgettable. Like, where are the writers taking 10 years to write a book?

Because by constantly reminding them of that one mistake they made that got them trolled, you're reminding them of the person they used to be and tried hard later to NOT be, and it's going to have an opposite effect from what you think.

Thinking about the two people who rated my debut queer desi book that doesn’t come out until 2025 1 stars 🤷‍♀️

Exactly, which makes the IDF’s justification that it’s because of the Hamas that they’re committing all these war crimes BASE-FUCKING-LESS. They’re brutes, who’ve been committing war crimes against Palestinians for a long, long time. It’s not just because of what the Hamas did.

I’m seeing so many reviews of adults reading YA books and complaining about it being too “meta”, having too many gen-z phrases, or having mentions of TikTok and current trends, and I’m just…? It’s a YA book set in 2024 what did you expect YOU’RE not even the target audience 😭

bipoc authors should be allowed to write tropey, fluffy, cringey, and predictable romcoms too

So you mean to tell me that some of you are married with kids and day jobs and still find time to write full length novels?😭

As a soon-to-debut desi romance writer, I will always support other desi romance writers, because we have got to stick together 🌷 so here’s THE ULTIMATE THREAD OF DESI YA & ADULT ROMANCE BOOKS! RTs & boosts are most appreciated (this took me ages to compile)!!

white authors writing bipoc characters: "She had skin the colour of caramel toffee. Her eyes were like two white almonds with dollops of cocoa at the centre. I wondered how it would be to run my fingers across her brown shoulder—would it be like dipping them in melted chocolate?"
