Been seeing lots of new (+ in most cases, marginalized) writers say they feel bad promoting their work in the midst of everything else that’s going on. Please shout about your work because it’ll only get harder + harder for it to be seen and your voice is needed more than ever.

"I want to look (inside) and see that the (centre) leads to a different world." Dreamy, wondrous, a linguistic treat, a mysterious room--Isana Skeete's "at the (centre) of it all" hits all the bases! We love this delightfully strange story, up now! hexliterary.com/?p=2509
