Today I spoke w/ intimacy coordinator and director, Nicole Perry.
Nicole and I discussed how #ConsentMatters and #BoundarySetting in #ProfessionalSpaces after the chaos and completely inappropriate conduct displayed at #sinnersandstardust this August.

There needs to be more security and clear and enforced codes of conduct at all Book events and conventions.
Paraphrasing @fozmeadows.bsky.social:
People act this way because they feel entitled, think that it’s socially acceptable, and don’t think there will be consequences.

I can't stop thinking about Sarah's article for Smart Bitches, Trashy Books. Ya'll really out here coming on to AUTHOR'S HUSBANDS? Seriously, that alone is would have gotten you some hands thrown at you. #sinnersandstardust
It’s wild that sometimes the wrestling space can feel safer than the book space.
Remember folks: Fiction isn’t an invitation.

Oof yall cracked in the head #sinnersandstardust
These authors are better than me bc I wouldn't be giving these dweebs a fucking inch--you put your hands on me and charges are being pressed expeditiously. Y'all wanna act like predators, you can be charged as one🤷♀️ #sinnersandstardust #BookSky
But also, why aren't the cons doing more to protect their guests? As soon as someone assaults another person, they should be booted tf out #sinnersandstardust #BookSky
Getting my stock ready for @sinnersandstardust next weekend! I can’t wait! #sinnersandstardust #booksigning #boston #romancereaders #brittonbrinkley #authorlife
