Ellen Page had a pretty good career. She was in a bunch of big movies and performed well. Now she seems to barely find work, she is mutilated and unattractive and manifestly mentally ill. You go, Girl!

The general public market is already beyond saturated with novels, articles, opinion blogs and movies about the Trans experience from their point of view. Now, we have people like Biden’s press secretary (Madame Pillow Head) trying to turn each and every month of the year into some kind of
“Pride Celebration Month!”. No Mas, per favor. No Mas!

“Advances”, LOL. This is how the Deep State PAYS-OFF USEFUL IDIOTS for contributing to the destruction of America. The Bidens use the term “Loan”, but those PAYOFFS come from CHINA.

As a novelist, published quite successfully in an earlier era, I’m beyond saddened by this trend of woke editors and agencies. When you read the profiles of agents and the material they ask for, you will find quite explicitly exactly what’s described in this story.

In short, at a time when I’m writing the best fiction of my life, I can’t seem to break the bipoc, LBGTQ+ ceiling. Last three years I’ve been asking, “Who’s reading this stuff? Cannot possibly be a market for it.”

So I’m looking for ways to bypass the legacy agents. Don’t have the key yet, but I will find it. Meanwhile, sheesh. All that money thrown at junk.

This horse crap will likely be approved only for middle and highschool libraries. The indoctrination continues. And if you try to remove the filth, pinkos will sue.

It makes you wonder if there's an ulterior motive behind it. Book deals are a favorite money laundering scheme of democrats, like Hillary Clinton's many books and many millions of dollars she's taken in from them. Has anyone here ever seen someone actually buy & read one of Hillary's books? Me neither.

How about Barack Obama's books that were published before anyone outside the democratic establishment knew who he was? I'm sure the public was clamoring for the memoirs of a guy who had done nothing but go to college, smoke a lot of pot and do a little cocaine. Sounds like about 50 million other college kids but for some reason a publisher decided to give him millions of dollars for his story.

Somebody's laundering some money with these "book deals".

Just today I was telling my sister about a children’s novel I’m working on and how I’ve added a side character who’s “non-binary” and obsessed with her pronouns. The subordinate point of this side character will be to mock her narcissism - as and see her snap out of it by the end, realizing the journey wasn’t “all about her”. I expressed worries about turning off conservative parents by even bringing that attribute forth. She said “No, I totally get the irony and humor. So will the conservatives. The wokies will love it, because they’ll be too self absorbed to catch the mocking of what will clearly be seen by the heroes a character flaw.”. We’ll see...

The Department of Education will spend billions to buy them up so each public school student will be forced to read them.

It’s little known to the general public that these leftist book flops end up in a Chicago warehouse next to Hillary’s “It Takes a Village.”
