Wendy Palmer<p>The heartbreaking effect of “soft banning”, even for a 25-year-career author:</p><p>She explained, “It is easy for those who doubt book bans to point to other reasons for this—heck, it’s easy for me to wonder if it’s just because my books are no longer relevant or I’ve suddenly become a talentless hack. But that is what makes this kind of book banning so insidious. It is quiet and it hides itself in whispers; and it likes to make authors believe that they are the problem.”</p><p><a href="https://indieauthors.social/@indieauthornews/114038719627876526" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">indieauthors.social/@indieauth</span><span class="invisible">ornews/114038719627876526</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/BookBans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BookBans</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/authors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>authors</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.au/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a></p>
