Anyone know of grants/funding opportunities for first book tours?

Just reminding that the industrial publishing complex is classist af, and a real element of my first book existing is LOTS of submissions fees (legit took out student loans for them).

A city whose streets escaped it,
a house without windows,
a rain with no clouds,
a swimmer in the desert,
a shirt with ripped-off buttons

The New Inquiry is seeking dispatches (1k-1.5k word blend of reporting and analysis) from people active in the current anti-genocide protest movements. Send pitches to [email protected]. Anonymity can be preserved, and pitches by groups or collectives are welcome.

whenever I’m reading for Split Lip Magazine, I occasionally get queries from writers that’re like “what books are you interested in?” it’s happened enough that I figure I’d put up a list of books I’m itching to read (that I wouldn’t mind getting pitches/subs over!) 😉🫦✨

BLP has a new distributor! That's the good news. The bad news: we have to pay $21k to move our books out of the warehouses where SPD abandoned them. In an attempt to cover this cost, we are raising our goal. Thanks to everyone who has already donated!!
