๐จ CNN just accidentally said the quiet part loud on live television:
โWeโre not showing you that because the Israeli government doesnโt allow us โ or want us โ to show where that may have come from.โ
A major American news network just admitted on air that a foreign government is controlling what you see.
Not suggesting it. Not implying it. Confessing it.
Speaker Johnson calls Islam a misguided religion from the House floor. The CIA arms Kurdish militias for regime change.
And now CNN confirms Israel is managing the visual narrative of a war American taxpayers are funding with their lives and $220 million a day.
You are not seeing the full picture. By design.

โจ UK COVER REVEAL โจ
The cover for the UK edition for my book - a story about a Palestinian haunted house that fights back against its occupiers, and the three generations of Palestinian women who are connected to it - is out! Preorder here: linktr.ee/deenahelm
ALT The UK cover for Our Cut of Salt, which depicts the title on the top half on a beige background. The bottom half shows the bottom half of a woman's face, overlaid with windows and doors, and shaded in red as the top part of her face crumbles. On the side is Palestinian embroidery in the colors of black, green, and red.

Hi queriers! I'm planning on doing a deep dive into my submissions inbox in March and will hopefully be able to get back to everyone before summer.
I'm open to queries from marginalized authors only and am not sure when I'll reopen to queries this year.

Any unsolicited queries that are sent to my agency email will be deleted unread.
Any unsolicited queries sent to my PERSONAL email will be deleted unread, and you will also be blocked. Please don't query me at my personal email. It's weird.

Since the Winter Olympics is underway, this is the perfect time to post Surya Bonaly doing her back flip on ice. Judges used to underscore her and I loved that she did the backflip in her last performance before retiring as a big FU to the establishment.
