I absolutely loved @megiddings.bsky.social’s book LAKEWOOD and it hugely helped me figure out the way forward for writing BIPOC characters who are experiencing trauma due to strange products changing the body. This blurb means THE 🌎.

If you haven’t gone out and read Megan Giddings yet, go now!

#GreatLakes whitefish (Atikameg) - a once-abundant and culturally important staple of the region - is in trouble. Faced with lakes transformed by invasive zebra and quagga mussels, some are proposing "pond rescue" as a potential way to save the species from collapse bridgemi.com/michigan-env...
Time running out for Great Lakes whitefish. Can ponds become their Noah’s Ark? - Bridge Michigan
