It's #FediBookFair weekend! All weekend, authors will be posting about books and related topics. Follow the hashtag to find new authors to follow, and books to read or buy as Christmas presents.
If this doesn't sound like fun, filter the hashtag. But if it does, please boost so that more people can join us.
We will boost as many posts as we can, and we encourage others to do the same.

Voter intimidation by men is a real problem and I’m glad these ads address it.
