Help, #WritingCommunity, recommendations needed.

I'm planning a book tour for my forthcoming book, SCARLET, and I'd be very grateful for any recommendations on virtual reading series I could contact about hosting a reading/Q&A for the new book.

More info and excerpts can be found here: https://francescolevato.com/2022/06/recent-publications-from-scarlet/

Recent Publications from SCARLET | Francesco Levato

I set up some groups I hope will be useful for our #WritingCommunity:

@virtualreadings - post notices about your virtual #literary #reading events so we can boost and attend.

@litsubmissions - post your #LitMag #submission calls so we can boost and submit.

Follow the group to get its posts. Tag the group in a post to share it with the group. Note: these groups are not moderated.

Please boost!

I’m looking to compile a list of #VirtualReadingSeries - on or off Mastodon. If anyone is interested, I could post it as a spreadsheet once complete.

Boosts and recommendations appreciated!

#ReadingSeries "It is not true that socialism will arise automatically from the daily struggle of the working class. Socialism will be the consequence of (1), the growing contradictions of capitalist economy and (2), of the comprehension by the working class of the unavoidability of the suppression of these contradictions through a social transformation." - Rosa Luxemburg, "Reform Or Revolution", Ch. 5 'The Consequences of Social Reformism and General Nature of Reformism'
#ReadingSeries "Insofar as trade unions can intervene in the technical department of production, they can only oppose technical innovation. But here they do not act in the interest of the entire working class and its emancipation, which accords rather with technical progress and, therefore, with the interest of the isolated capitalist. They act here in a reactionary direction." - Rosa Luxemburg, "Reform Or Revolution", Ch.3 'The Realisation of Socialism through Social Reforms'
#ReadingSeries "We see that credit, instead of being an instrument for the suppression or the attenuation of crises, is on the contrary a particularly mighty instrument for the formation of crises. It cannot be anything else. Credit eliminates the remaining rigidity of capitalist relationships. It introduces everywhere the greatest elasticity possible." - Luxemburg, "Reform Or Revolution", Ch.2 "The Adaptation of Capital"
#ReadingSeries "No coarser insult, no baser aspersion, can be thrown against the workers than the remarks: 'Theocratic controversies are only for academicians.'..The entire strength of the modern labour movement rests on theoretic knowledge." - Rosa Luxemburg, "Reform Or Revolution" https://www.marxists.org/archive/luxemburg/1900/reform-revolution/index.htm
