Readercon public statement

[emilytheslayer]

Ok SO. I went from not being ready to talk about the Readercon situation to basically bursting at the seams and not being ABLE to talk about it because of how much wasn't public info yet. Today our Public Statement went live, and I just want to say, BOOM

Yes to every word of this.

(Sonya is sovay, btw.)

Oh excellent, thank you. I should go follow her. I mean, online. Not follow her around. Although I kind of want to after what she said yesterday. She's great, and so are you.

STALKER

I mean, yes, she is awesome, and very worth reading online.

[emilytheslayer]

I just want to help her ruin everything with feminism! It's all I dream of!

[cucumberseed]

Thank you, all of you.
rosefox and sovay and you and the people I do not know are involved here.
I cannot thank you enough.

"Aw Readercon why are you disappointing me? Why did you have to go die in a fire? The hell?"

Very much this.

[emilytheslayer]

Thank you for believing in us Eric! Can't wait to see you next year!

[cucumberseed]

i read the statement and as I told Rose, well done.

[emilytheslayer]

Thank you. That means a lot.

People who have been paying attention know there are those of you who worked like hell to turn this around.

[emilytheslayer]

And that means more than I can say, really.
