#writingcommunity Is it rude to email a publisher a bunch of crying emojis and beg them to put me out of my misery? It's been 7 months. Asking for a friend.

What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, β€œGo in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

Intersex rights are human rights!
