News:

Amazon is categorizing lots of romance books as erotica and making them harder to find and no one knows why – including maybe Amazon. You can find that quote I mentioned about Jeff Bezos and dinosaurs here and you’re welcome. Here’s the RITA nominee list…and here’s the RWA statement on the lack of authors of color represented – this year and every year. Super smart humans Piper Huguley and Courtney Milan have been tweeting about this issue. We tangentially mentioned Duende District – go find them, especially if you’re in the Washington, DC area.
