and other talk shows with huge audiences to promote their book clubs.
Meanwhile, the authors whose books are featured in those clubs, along with all the hilarious and talented women authors whose books aren’t featured, are busting their asses promoting their work mostly to other writers on social media, praying for a retweet by someone with a blue checkmark.
“Perhaps we should look to the book industry, though I find it hard to believe that publishers would turn down, say, Jennifer Lawrence’s lyrical short stories because they were already committed to Pete Wentz’s roman à clef about mental illness .
“Maybe women in Hollywood are fighting first for equal pay and increased creative space in their own industry as writers, directors, and producers. Maybe male celebrities are less bashful—or less self-aware—about their vanity projects, conditioned to take their art more seriously.”A third option is that maybe women in Hollywood prefer to be readers, leading book clubs that elevate actual women writers, instead of publishing embarrassing, poorly written books best left as diary entries.
The solution to Sean Penn’s bad books is not throwing more books by hobbyist writers at the problem, even if those writers happen to be women. It is elevating the voices of women who are already writers, something that very few media outlets are doing.
