I sat down for an interview with the lovely folks at @abookapart, who published YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, to talk a bit about design, writing, reading, and

uh

well, idk, let’s say “stuff” https://abookapart.com/blogs/press/get-to-know-ethan-marcotte-again

Today marks three entire weeks since YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION came out — three wonderful, overwhelming weeks. Here’s a little post to mark the milestone, and to say thanks: https://ethanmarcotte.com/wrote/three-weeks/

Feeling damned honored that the folks at Tech Workers Union Local 1010 invited me to do a guest spot in their latest newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/e2f44b75b52c/tech-1010-newsletter-issue-15361069

wrote a post last week about the wonderful but EVENTFUL twenty-four hours following the book’s launch, naturally i forgot to actually publish it until [checks notes] just now https://ethanmarcotte.com/wrote/mail-run/

Once more before the weekend: published my first op-ed this week! Over at WBUR I looked at Hollywood’s twin strikes, and what they’re teaching us about responding to “generative AI”.

I wrote about the launch of YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION: how the book came together, and a few of the (many, many) people who helped it get here. https://ethanmarcotte.com/wrote/you-deserve-a-tech-union-launch/

#YDATUbook #unions #TechUnions

And here’s another milestone: baby’s first op-ed piece! Over at WBUR, I look at the twin strikes in Hollywood, and at how their fight against generative AI is a lesson for all of us.

(That’s right: all of us.)

I can’t quite believe it: my new book, YOU DESERVE A TECH UNION, is finally here. 📕🎉

I am so proud of this little book, and more than a little overwhelmed that it’s, like, finally REAL.

Thank you so much to everyone who’s supported the book, or preordered it, or talked it up to their friends. It really means the world to me.
