This weekend, authors and publishers (including me) will be writing about their books, research, and related topics, with the #FediBookFair hashtag.

If it doesn't sound fun, please mute the hashtag. Nobody wants to fill your timeline with stuff you're not interested in. You can find out how to do that here: https://fedi.tips/filtering-your-timeline-to-hide-posts-on-mastodon/
