And we're excited to share that <b>Hillary Rettig, </b>one of our SoJust Skillshare presenters and longtime SoJuster, is taking preorders for her new book,<b> "The Seven Secrets of the Prolific: The Definitive Guide to Overcoming Procrastination, Perfectionism and Writer's Block."</b>
Procrastination is disempowerment, and this book identifies the major
forces that cause that disempowerment, including perfectionism,
scarcity, internalized oppression, and exploitative career paths, and
tells you how to overcome them. It's a great book for all writers and
students, and anyone wishing to become more productive. She's offering
30%+ discounts for preorders (available in paperback or ebook). Mention
SoJust when you order and she'll give us a donation.

<strong>Socializing for Justice - <a href="http://www.sojust.org">www.sojust.org</a></strong>
<br>Since 2006, we've been building this great sandbox where we
can bring progressives of all stripes together and try out new
ideas in this "Movement Moment". Spaces like this are crucial as we
start to reframe and build new visions for our movement(s).</p>
<p>With over 1750 members and almost 5 years of creating a diverse
cross-issue community in Boston (95+ events!), Socializing for
Justice is the best place to find the great people, organizations
and community you're looking for while putting the SOCIAL back in
social justice.</p>
<p>
<strong>YES, WE MEAN YOU.</strong> We've got members of all ages,
races, genders, sexual orientations, levels of activism and
professions. We hope you see someone like yourself and meet someone
you otherwise wouldn't have.</p>
