Do you have too many books? Is Meta not showing you the giveaway posts? I'd love to figure this out if I can so we can keep supporting Diana, Ahmed, Hala, Mo'tasem, Basel, Amani, Mohammed, Haya, and more.10 May 2026 20:07 +0000at://did:plc:wnpyxouopaipvmfiy5cot5mv/app.bsky.feed.post/3mljkrsgbfc2fhttps://bsky.app/profile/nicolezelniker.bsky.social/post/3mlhfvojfgc25Musicals I would kill to see with a sapphic lead couple: 1.

Discovering the characters, reveling in the shifting plot, all of the things that make a project happen in this stage. Gen AI doesn't get to take that away.13 Apr 2026 16:36 +0000at://did:plc:wnpyxouopaipvmfiy5cot5mv/app.bsky.feed.post/3mjfce4fxjs2mhttps://bsky.app/profile/nicolezelniker.bsky.social/post/3mjdlb3tq5k2nJessica Bell at Vine Leaves Press did the cover for WE ARE MADE OF SCARS & STARLIGHT!
