Closely on the heels of RWA's implosion, Novelists, Inc., aka NINC, apparently blew up last week over . . . wait for it . . . diversity. The furor spilled over onto Twitter. I'm not a member of NINC, so I can't comment other than from the bits and pieces I saw on Twitter, Alyssa Day has resigned as NINC president.
I'm not linking to any specific tweets. If you want to know, you can do your own research.
I can't deal with more crazy. EVERYTHING is important. I'm definitely not saying it's not important. However, I have to finish a book that truly is less harrowing with demons than the worse-than-usual shitstorm life has become.
So, blogging will be very light for the next two weeks.
I swear I'll try to find something funny to post for y'all because I'm so tired of people shitting on other people just because they can.

Well, after the shit that went down in SFWA a few years ago, I can't really say that I'm surprised.
DeleteNot surprised per se, but you'd think they'd at least give us a cooling off period before pressing the next Big Red Bigotry Button. :/

For reals. Sometimes you need to click off the Drama Lama Channel for awhile.
