Man, so a lot of authors are isolated and scared and worried about their careers right now. Doing this work often feels precarious on a good day, let alone now. I wanted to offer some reassurance along a particular front, and I hope it's useful to someone out there.

When FRESHWATER came out, one of my biggest fears was being blackballed in the literary world. I don't think it's possible to move with integrity without pissing some people off, and I was terrified because I was a bby writer, so what power did I have?

If a more established writer decided to block me or my work from a space in retaliation for something I did or said that they didn't like, what could I do? What costs would I pay for not kissing the rings I was supposed to kiss?
