I recommend Sister Outsider by Audre Lorde. Her essays blew me away and explained intersectionality in a way that made sense to me for the first time, although she didn’t use that word because it’s an older work. It was one of those books I got from the library and about 30 pages in I knew I wanted my own copy.

I’d be interested in craft-related threads. For example, what descriptive techniques do you use or admire? My personal interest in self-promo within writing communities is low, as I think it makes more sense to promote to readers instead of other writers, but I suppose the beauty of weekly or monthly threads is they keep things organized so people can find what they want. Also, check-in or accountability threads would be fun. What did you get done this week?
