I wrote this essay about having a book pulled. I think it speaks to issues indie writers can face when working with small publishers: lack of formal protections, imbalance of emotional labor, when "crazy writers" like myself end up being more professional than the professionals in the equation.

I rly appreciate this review. been thinking a lot about moral panic lately, how unhinged it is that trans people are being scapegoated/demonized right now by our current admin. It's much more pathetic/harmful than targeting goths in the 90s as we have more tools and access to info at our fingertips

When did "quoting a political activist's own words and correctly describing their political positions is offensive!" become some agreed upon rule?

It's time to quote this again. We need (your) (anticorporate) literature now. Listen to Dan.

Main takeaways im getting from feedback about Suspect:

Female readers: [insert comment on relatability of female friendships]

Male readers: [insert snarky comment on rural 16 year old from the 90s' poor taste in music]

Anyone who’s read @ginatron.bsky.social’s work knows she can’t be trusted. She’s now eeked her way into the acknowledgments pages of my book. Please avenge me: order a copy of her memoir Suspect and write MORE HELL in all the margins.

Love talking about Suspect and the writing process in general on this podcast! If you listen long enough you'll hear a word I say get bleeped out which I was no joke delighted by.

The '90s, Bullying, and a Prank Gone Wrong, with Gina Tron Podcast Episode Β· Culturally Determined Β· 07/30/2025 Β· 30m

I interviewed @ginatron.bsky.social about her memoir "Suspect," about growing up as an outsider in a small Vermont town and the bad teenage joke that led everyone to think she was planning to be a school shooter.

Plz vote for me in this final round. Do I think I am THE best writer living in VT? No! But I hope me & my writing are real, approachable, & non-pretentious. If my work has ever made you feel seen, understood, or entertained, it would mean the world to me. Ty!

I have so many failed novel attempts that live in my Google drive. But my current novel attempt feels the most promising: the characters aren't just a a veiled version of memoir and yet they feel more real and close to me than ever

The same dude gets it every year. I'd love if someone new wins, even if it's not me. Am I the BEST author in VT? Probably not but would be honored to be a finalist. I feel like I often don't fully fit neatly into any literary award or recognition circle.

Consider nominating me for fave author. I've been writing about Vermont in my non fiction work and in my journalism for many years.
