No profound comment about your post, Shelley - though I chuckled at the "cool" factor. Just commiserating with the learning curve. I imported all the people subscribing to my newsletter over to Substack. Didn't really intend to merge that list with the subscribers to my main site. But now I have no idea who will receive what!
That's awesome that your book is on the "Read List" for some schools! I'm sure there is always going to be that controversy over anyone's book, regardless of the content, but especially when someone's gender and preference is in question. Banning books goes back centuries. Sadly, many of the banned books were (and still are) great books to read. Kudos to you!
I didn’t know schools were teaching you book! That’s wonderful!! Congratulations!
I really want to visit!

Everything's an experiment:)
I’m so proud to know you! Keep doin what you were meant to do💛
Thank you Lissa! And I'm inspired by your work too!
That's a brilliant way to deal with banned books. Make them the ones people really want to read.
Often that's how it works:)
