Sunday Linkfest!
Hi folks! MY FACE IS FREEZING. I jogged and wrote on Friday (you can find my post for Apex Magazine here), and yesterday was my Fukitol day, so I... shoveled and cleaned. Yes.
Anyway, links! In the order which I found them:
Are you a moral author? HarperCollins will drop your book if your "conduct evidences a lack of due regard for public conventions and morals, or if Author commits a crime or any other act that will tend to bring Author into serious contempt, and such behavior would materially damage the Work’s reputation or sales."
Why pseudonyms are good, which to me validates my choice to keep a variety of platforms. Even if I'm not on Facebook and have less of a social life as a result.
New Goblin Fruit issue is up! Also newly up, MBRANESF!
I know I mentioned Jaded16India last linkfest, but she posted so much good stuff on Tumblr this week:
On Treasuring Difference
Cartographies of Struggle
Dear White Feminists
An amazing couch that folds into a two-fer bunk bed
You Offend Me, You Offend My Family tells us all about Kato

It's been making the rounds, but here it is: Sarah Palin Steampunk Comic.
Because I'm sure you always wanted to know about how Right Whales have threesomes
Amanda Hess sums up this week's advice columns.
An interview with literary agent Sara Megibow
Another contest! This one from Passionate Ink, a romance publisher. There're two categories, one for published writers, and one for unpublished writers.

Muslimah Media Watch covers women in the Tunisian revolution
