Katie Zhao 💛 THE FALLEN HERO out 10/13 ✨ @ktzhaoauthor

One thing I'd love to see publishing do is buy more quiet stories by marginalized creators. Whenever I pitch a new project, I feel like I have to use ‼️BIG FLASHY COMPS‼️

Marginalized authors deserve to tell quiet stories, too. Happy stories. Stories where we can just...exist.

Sometimes the quiet stories can be more powerful than the flashy ones. Contemporary, historical, upmarket, literary, or women's fiction by BIPOC, LGBTQ+ authors #MSWL

Interesting article. Like to see this in historical fiction or contemporary fiction with strong female MC. #MSWL
