Thank you!!

As someone who literally can’t lift their baggage in the overhead compartment, this was so real! Thanks for this beautiful piece!

My favorite piece I’ve ever written (a lil micro that can be read two ways) published in one of my favorite journals!

A journal you must read!!! 👹

Every now and then I remember I have Bluesky and I should promote this awesome project!! Reviewers are hard at work reviewing small press books!

Absolutely! You can find a link on my website to the form (under #100 smallpress at the bottom of the page!) vanimperobin.wixsite.com/robinvanimpe...

Submission stats of this year:
- 71 rejections
- 1 acceptance

For sure a humbling year, BUT grateful for the one acceptance from an amazing journal.

My third/final review for 100 Notable Small Press Books! I found this book from @catapultbooks.bsky.social very original. It feels new/unique while talking about very prominent topics. The way social media was incorporated was so fun. Read the review and check out the other books!

Four days ago was the launch of the 100 Notable Small Press Books.

My second review was for The Revolution Will Not Be Rated G by Keja Chatterjee from @greenwriterspress.bsky.social

People like romance because romance requires craft like every other form of writing

2025 100 Notable Small Press Books seal atop covers of 12 of the selected books.

This is as exciting as a book launch.

Highly recommend finding kickass reviewers to champion 100 great books across a diverse array of authors, genres, and small presses. 10/10.

An acceptance from one of my dream journals today. First of the year. I guess good things do take time (unfortunately).

Coming soon: Worldviews podcast series on blue background.

Global interaction is greater than ever, and yet, we remain siloed, speaking only to those inhabiting the same circles. By inviting global experts to discuss issues and opportunities, Worldviews strives to bridge irreconcilable differences. Follow us to embark on a global journey.

Started working for this upcoming podcast on international relations and global conflict! If you are interested in politics that are not focused solely on the US, give it a follow! We got some interesting guests lined up!!

From a while ago but possibly one of my favorite pieces I ever had the privilege of accepting! I think about it a lot lol.

Thank you!!

I have only one hater and it’s me 💀

When Amazon launched in 1995, there were 5,500 indie bookshops in the U.S., with 7,000 locations. By May of 2023, that number had decreased to 2,185 indies & 2,599 locations.

When you purchase audiobooks via Libro.fm vs. Audible, you directly support indie bookshops. Let's make that number grow ❤️

Oooh just started reading it for my book club!
