Thank you times 1,000 for posting the banned book news, Victoria. I'm an avid supporter of the freedom to read, and my first novel, which I'm publishing at the end of this year, has book bans as a central theme.

Just preordered your book!!

Oh, keep us informed about the progress of your novel! I’ve written a novel about a teacher going through some book banning **it in 2000 (set it back a bit, so larger themes could come to the front). A bit based on my experience as a public school educator, but mostly fiction. Looking for a publisher. I think novels with book banning issues should be front and center right now! I think that many, many people would want to read them!

Thanks for ordering my book! ❤️

Oh, I admire people who can pull it all together to self-publish. So many strings. The editing, the book cover design, the ISBN, and … I’m not sure that I could do that.

We’re similar. I taught for 26 years. If you’d ever like to chat, I’ll be happy to share my self pub process.
