Friday Finds

i dont want to be infantilized because i refuse to be sexualized 
Lack of capitalisation aside, musician Grimes has written a pretty cool feminist tirade over on her tumblr about treatment of women in music and women generally. It's well worth the read.

- Writer Unboxed has talked to literary agents about what NOT to include in the first chapter of your novel.

- Danielle Binks has put together a really interesting post on the new adult genre and the effect that fad-erotica like 50 Shades is having on the genre and the readership.

- Strange Horizons has also released a study of why you haven't heard of most female SF authors

- io9 also has three new books that will prepare you for the future of humanity which is cray. On the note of the above too, all three are awesome lady writers which is great.

- F, Marry, Kill: The 2013 Summer Movie Guide! I can already see a few months in the cinema. There are soooo many movies I want to see coming out.

- Also, how great are these picture of a Brooklyn gang in 1959? I'm really feeling it.

- In tumblr news, poets without clothes exists.

- Annnnd, on the other hand, how great is Ksubi's new collection? I'm loving the sci-fi-ish feel to it.
