How to suppress women's writing in the age of social media

How to suppress women's writing in the age of social media:

cassandraclare:



Inspired of course by by Joanna Russ. And not set off by anything in particular, just an aggregate of comments and a good friend being treated terribly for posting some of her fiction for free online.



She tweets and tumblrs so she must not be working.
She never tweets…


Do read.

I thought that I’d given up on Mal. I thought the love I’d had for him belonged to the past, to the foolish, lonely girl I never wanted to be again. I’d tried to bury that girl and the love she’d felt, just as I’d tried to bury my power. But I wouldn’t make that mistake again. Whatever burned between us was just as bright, just as undeniable. The moment our lips met, I knew with pure and piercing certainty that I would have waited for him forever

He leaned against the window, and the gilded frame came into sharp focus. “Do you think it would be any different with your tracker beside you? With that Lantsov pup?”


“Yes,” I said simply.


“Because you would be the strong one?”


“Because they’re better men than you.”


“You might make me a better man.”

“And you might make me a monster.”
