"In our risk-averse climate, a lot of what is exciting, original and untested is being published by independent publishers" This is such a fascinating read for indie publishing aficionados ๐ https://t.co/R3Ig7RHb7W

Did you know that July is #DisabilityPrideMonth? It started in Boston, USA in 1990 as a day the same year that the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was signed. The first celebration of Disability Pride Month was in 2015, marking 25th anniversary of the ADA being signed.

We love to see it ๐
It's been a busy time at FFP! As well as the British LGBT Awards protest, we've also had FIVE PRIDES sign the Fossil Free Pride Pledge in just one week ๐คฏ Middlesex, Cornwall, Essex, Margate and Worcestershire Prides all committed to no fossil fuel companies or banks at Pride!

โThere arenโt two groups - you and us. Thereโs our LGBTQ+ family, and as far as Iโm concerned, in the interests of all our mental health, and to advance trans inclusion, we must indeed act as one.โ This is well worth a read! ๐๐ณ๏ธโ๐๐ณ๏ธโโง๏ธ

I hate posting about my own features and submissions, but the team at @ErgiPress put together this beautiful issue which my story, โEastbound, Westboundโ (which I wrote last year) features in, so I figured I had to share a photo of the stunning cover (art by Severin Strelka)
