It simultaneously feels like I’ve been on Bookstagram forever & also not long at all, but April 3rd is my 1 Year Bookstaversary! To celebrate that + my 28th birthday on April 9th, I’m hosting my first ever monthly photo challenge: #OneYearOfManicFemme!

GIVEAWAY STUFF
I’m planning to host some flash giveaways throughout the month, so keep an eye on my Instagram stories for those. Additionally, I’m going to be entering everyone who posts a book they read or bought on my recommendation on my birthday into an extra giveaway with the prize & other details, like bonus entries, TBD. I know that isn’t ideal, but I want to get the prompts up sooner rather than later and figuring out giveaway stuff will take more time.
#RedStackforAutismAcceptance
World Autism Day is April 2nd, but all of April is Autism Acceptance Month. So I encourage everyone to post a #RedStackforAutismAcceptance at some point in April, even if you can’t participate on the 2nd!
I’ll be creating a separate post explaining the details/meaning behind the hashtag, but in the meantime you can find more info in my Instagram story highlight that’s called “Autistic.” The TL;DR version is that Autism Speaks (who heads up the “Light it up blue”/autism awareness initiative) is a hate group that promotes eugenics, and Actually Autistic people created #RedInstead for Autism ACCEPTANCE as an alternative. Also, no puzzle pieces please!
Anyway, I’m sure there’s something I’m forgetting, so I might edit this post later, but in the meantime, you can like/save/share the post on Instagram and comment on that post with any questions ❤
