Saddened to learn of the death of Michael Denneny, a brilliant and fearless editor and a wonderful colleague to me (in 2 houses, SMP and Crown) and to many others. This interview conveys some of his pioneering career as a gay editor 1/ lambdaliterary.org/2014/10/m…

Fascinating from Brianna Yamashita at @WMG_NYC on #BookTok - they had a creator campaign for Cloud Cuckoo Land that had TikTokers create the book in nail art, in a cake, and a woodcarver made the book from axes and chainsaws.
