right on the heels of the DMZ stuff, too - can we please just get a break from publications/publishers making toxic assumptions about What Queerness Is and aggressively gatekeeping along those lines?? WHY IS THIS SO GODDAMN DIFFICULT

Publishing and the world in general really. After seeing the dark matter zine stuff, then finding out about the shitty behavior of authors I really liked, and now this, and to top it all off the new proposed law here in my home state of NC requiring govt officials to report...

Kids to their parents over gender non conforming behavior...why can't ppl just worry about themselves and quit worrying and talking about who is or isn't this or that on any given day? Mean ppl suck

all of this shit is so NOT surprising after my time in the trenches of YA twitter, which turned me off so badly from ever writing about my own experience w/ queerness for fear of shit like this it’s likely i’m moving away from YA altogether—though it seems this is everywhere now!

if i ever got an email like the one they sent this author i would HULK out. they would be feeling real bad real quick. i cannot imagine.

Just noticed this non apology says that they reached out to the author via telephone to "FORMERLY apologize." A publisher who can't be bothered to proofread something posted to their own website is probably not one you'd want to fool with anyway.
