Read on Twitter
i have a book due in march and to be completely honest i don't know if i will ever turn this book in
it's not that i don't want to turn it in. but the people i'm working with on it (glasstown ent) have been so abusive that i feel physically incapable of being creative or even thinking of anything other than surviving this work relationship with my health intact
and this is not me being dramatic. i wish it were. just being honest. my main concern is walking out of this experience as a writer and person who still sees value in what i do/who i am
despite all that stuff happening last year they're still the same (they're incapable of changing) and unfortunately i don't have the option of walking away from them as a writer. it's extremely devastating and traumatizing
there have been several phases of this experience that i don't want to re-live long enough to recount but now we're in this gaslighting stage where i'm being made to doubt if anything they've done has even happened. do not have enough experience with stuff like this to cope
and when the book comes out, if it comes out, i'm sorry in advance....tried everything to get my name taken off of it. i personally am very committed and passionate about bringing authentic rep to the page and will fight to preserve that as best i can every step of the way
and i'm gonna be honest about this because i have to be. seeing negative reviews for books that i have written is already hard. but seeing reviews about a book with my name on it as written by white lady fetishist-racists / having that derail my name ...that is horrifying.
however "unprofessional" it is to be saying this...this is my twitter page and when i think of consequences, if i am fired, it will be a miracle. like breaking out of prison. if i have to write whatever white women want gay black boys to be, i will say how much i hate it here.
to be honest, glasstown entertainment needs to go out of business. i hear they're trying to bring in black women and other poc now and that is not what needs to happen because they will harm them. this company needs to go out of business. full stop.
