Looking forward to System Collapse, the 7th book in the Murderbot series, coming out in a couple weeks. #SystemCollapse #BookPeople #Murderbot

If you’re in Austin tomorrow night, there’s a reading and a book signing of “Butt or Face?” by children’s author Kari Lavelle, that tests your knowledge of zoological anatomy. At the fabulous Book People, of course.

(disclaimer: I’ve got photos in the book)

So glad to hear that #BookPeople (one of my favorite book stores in #Austin, when I lived in the area from 1997-2001) is involved in this lawsuit.

@bookstodon #bookpeople opinions please: the book we’re reading for the #BowieBookClub this month has several times declared that good #art and #literature comes more naturally from oppressive cultures. Is repression necessary? Is this like: all artists must be tortured to be great?

Hey, #BookPeople. Any recommendation for a page-turner sci-fi series? I'm looking to sink my metaphorical teeth into a new set. I liked Murderbot Diaries, The Expanse, Recursion by Blake Crouch, the Silo series by Hugh Howey...

Where’s all my fellow book dragons? I need some recommended reads on my feed! #book #bookpeople

I suppose a bit more info and a few more hashtags would be helpful!

I’m looking for a less expensive alternative (free or close to free really) to Submittable. I only need it for about a month out of the year. Any recommendations?

Boost appreciated!

#LiteraryAgents and #authors are asked to hold submissions. #reviewers and #bookbloggers are asked to hold content.

I know this is stressful for a lot of people, but improved working conditions in #publishing is good for everyone!

So if you’ve popped over from the bird place and you spot a few familiar faces, boost their posts, it helps us all find each other #writerslift #bookpeople #writingcommnunity #writinglife
